PCOS: more than just a reproductive issue

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is most commonly diagnosed in women and people assigned female at birth (AFAB) between the ages of 20 and 30, but it can happen at any age. While it’s often discovered after difficulty conceiving, PCOS is more than just a cause of infertility; it’s a lifelong condition with potentially serious health impacts if not managed properly. This makes it important to know the signs, symptoms and effects of PCOS at any age.
