A member asked:
Does pcos end at menopause?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Pcos is caused by increased insulin, Insulin resistance that is all part of the diabetes ii disease spectrum. At menopause, the ovarian aspects will dissipate for the most part with decreased androgen or male hormone production, but the metabolic syndrome, diabetes process continues. This is a chronic disease with no cure, only maintenance control. Low carb high fat diet is best treatment.
