When I was in my thirties, I was diagnosed with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome. (PCOS) is a hormonal balance that affects 5-10% of women ages 11-45 years old. The cause of the disorder is not really known, but it tends t run in families. The ovaries in a woman with PCOS produce too much androgen. Androgen is a male hormone but it is also present in women as well. PCOS women though make an over abundance of this hormone which causes problems with egg production and release during ovulation.
