A member asked:

What causes facial edema in pcos? and how can it be treated?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

PCOS and edema: Some patients with pcos -like syndromes have fluid retention due to the enzymatic changes that occur. These patients may have high blood pressure or other symptoms as well. Other pcos patients may have the swelling related to water retention that occurs and may need medications for the retention. It's important to find out the underlying cause before taking any medications. See your doctor first.
