Could it be PCOS? Here are the warning signs to look out for.
Polycystic O***y Syndrome (PCOS) is one of the most common hormone imbalances in women, but it often goes undiagnosed because the symptoms can be dismissed as “normal.”
Here are some signs it might be more than just a bad month:
* Irregular periods – missed cycles, very light, or very heavy bleeding
* Excess hair growth – especially on the face, chest, or back
* Thinning hair on the scalp – or unexpected hair loss
* Skin changes – persistent acne, oily skin, or dark patches
* Unexplained weight gain – especially around the belly
* Difficulty getting pregnant – linked to irregular ovulation
* Fatigue & mood changes – feeling low energy, anxious, or down
PCOS isn’t just about reproductive health. It can also increase the risk of insulin resistance, diabetes, and cardiovascular issues if left unmanaged.
The good news? With the right support, lifestyle adjustments, and medical care, PCOS can be managed, and symptoms can improve.
At VitalLife Phuket, we help women get to the root cause of their symptoms... not just cover them up.
If these signs sound familiar, it might be time to have your hormones checked.
