• PCOS full form- polycystic ovarian syndrome
• PCOD full form- polycystic ovarian disorder

Are PCOS and PCOD different?

Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is said to be a metabolic disorder of the endocrine system. High levels of male hormones may cause irregularity in ovulation causing this condition. Because of PCOS, cysts can also form in the ovary.

Polycystic ovarian disorder (PCOD) is related to the eggs of the ovaries. The ovaries release either immature or partially mature eggs. Over time, these eggs turn into cysts. As a result, other problems, such as abdominal pain, irregular periods, male pattern hair loss or weight gain may take place. It is said that an unhealthy lifestyle, junk food or being overweight may cause this condition.

PCOS and PCOD: which is more dangerous?

PCOS is said to be a more dangerous condition. That is because PCOS is a metabolic disorder. It can also have serious complications as women with PCOS could be at a higher risk of high blood pressure, obesity, and developing diabetes and the endometrium related problems.

Teenage girls who suffer from PCOS could also have symptoms, such as weight gain, excessive hair growth or acne.

PCOD is more common and can also be corrected with a balanced, healthy diet and exercise. It is said that PCOD does not significantly cause fertility problems. Women suffering from it mostly succeed to become pregnant with some medical help. On the other hand, women suffering from PCOS may have a hard time trying to become pregnant. The symptoms that PCOS and PCOD manifest may be similar, but in the case of PCOD, women still have chances of getting pregnant as they continue to ovulate periodically. But in the case of PCOS, infertility can also take place because the production of male hormones goes up. And this can even stop the ovulation process.
