— Understanding the condition —
What is PCOD?
PCOD, or Polycystic Ovarian Disease, is a common hormonal disorder in which the ovaries may develop multiple small follicles and ovulation may become irregular. It is closely related to Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS), a condition involving irregular ovulation, higher androgen levels, and polycystic ovaries.
Our experienced team addresses not only irregular periods but also related concerns such as acne, excess hair growth, weight changes, and insulin resistance.
“PCOD can affect women differently. Some experience mild symptoms, while others may have more noticeable hormonal and metabolic concerns.”
— Know the symptoms —
Common symptoms of PCOD
Symptoms may develop gradually and vary from person to person. If any of these feel familiar, a consultation can help bring clarity.
Irregular periods
Infrequent, missed, or prolonged periods.
Difficulty getting pregnant
Due to irregular ovulation.
Excess hair growth
Unwanted facial or body hair.
Acne or oily skin
Persistent breakouts or excess oiliness.

Darkening of skin
Darker skin around the neck, underarms, or groin.
Mood changes & fatigue

— How PCOS is assessed —
Three key features of PCOS
There is no single test for PCOD. PCOS is commonly assessed using three key features:
- Irregular or absent ovulation
- Signs of excess androgens — such as acne, excess hair growth, or scalp hair thinning
- Polycystic ovaries on ultrasound
— What causes PCOD? —
Common contributing factors
The exact cause of PCOD is not fully understood, but it is often linked to hormonal imbalance and insulin resistance. Higher insulin levels can stimulate the ovaries to produce more androgens, which may interfere with regular ovulation.
Insulin Resistance
Higher insulin levels can push the ovaries to produce more androgens.
Hormonal Imbalance
Imbalance in reproductive hormones that affects ovulation.
Family History
A family history of PCOD or PCOS.
Excess Body Weight
Excess weight or difficulty managing weight.
Sedentary Lifestyle
Low levels of daily physical activity.
Unhealthy Diet
Dietary patterns high in refined and processed foods.
Stress & Poor Sleep
Ongoing stress and inadequate sleep.
Inflammation & Metabolic Concerns
Inflammation and related metabolic issues.

Tips for managing PCOD
Healthy lifestyle habits, balanced nutrition, and regular physical activity may help manage PCOD symptoms, support hormonal health, and improve overall well-being. These measures should complement professional medical advice.
01
Eat regular, balanced meals with adequate fibre and protein
Sip water steadily through the day so your urine stays light and diluted.
02
Reduce refined carbohydrates, sugary drinks, and highly processed foods
Extra salt raises calcium in the urine — go easy on pickles, chips and packaged foods.
03
Stay physically active with activities you can maintain consistently
Reduce sweets and sugary drinks like sodas and packaged juices.
04
Prioritise 7–9 hours of quality sleep
Drink more in hot weather, during exercise, and when you're unwell.
05
Manage stress through yoga, meditation, walking, or breathing exercises
A balanced diet with appropriate calcium from food — don't cut it out on your own.
06
Maintain a healthy weight gradually and sustainably
Limit spinach, beets, nuts and chocolate if advised for oxalate stones.
07
Track your menstrual cycle and symptoms
Keep meat, fish and eggs in balanced portions to lower stone risk.
08
Avoid self-medication or unsupervised hormone supplements
Your diet plan should be based on your stone type and follow-up tests.

Common concerns, honest answers

Irregular or missed periods, difficulty getting pregnant, excess facial or body hair, acne or oily skin, scalp hair thinning, weight gain, darkening of skin around the neck or underarms, mood changes, and fatigue.
The exact cause isn’t fully understood, but it is often linked to hormonal imbalance and insulin resistance. Family history, excess weight, a sedentary lifestyle, diet, stress and poor sleep can also contribute.
There is no single test. Diagnosis is based on your symptoms, medical history, hormone and blood sugar tests, and a pelvic ultrasound. PCOS is commonly assessed by irregular ovulation, signs of excess androgens, and polycystic ovaries.

Many women with PCOD can conceive. If irregular periods or difficulty conceiving is a concern, we provide structured evaluation and personalised guidance focused on supporting regular ovulation.
