  1. PCOS and PCOD: Differences You Should Know ************************************************************************* Women often confuse polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and polycystic ovarian disease (PCOD), the medical conditions that significantly affect their reproductive health. The two acronyms, PCOS and PCOD, might seem similar but represent different conditions. Let us learn about these two medical issues briefly. What is PCOD? Polycystic ovarian disease, commonly known as PCOD, is a condition affecting the normal functioning of the ovaries. Under this, female ovaries produce partially or completely mature eggs in quantities that become cysts with time. As a result, the ovaries become big and release male hormones in large amounts, which can lead to irregular periods, abnormal weight gain, infertility, and hair loss. It is possible to control this disease by implementing certain lifestyle and diet changes suggested by our best gynae in Ahmedabad. What is PCOS?
