Polycystic O***y Syndrome, or PCOS, is one of the most common hormonal conditions affecting women, yet many don't even know they have it.

PCOS affects up to 1 in 5 women of reproductive age. It happens when the ovaries produce higher than normal levels of androgens (male hormones), which can interfere with ovulation.

Common signs and symptoms:
· Irregular or missed periods
· Difficulty falling pregnant
· Excess hair growth on the face or body
· Acne or oily skin
· Weight gain, especially around the midsection
· Thinning hair on the scalp

The good news is that PCOS can be managed. With the right combination of lifestyle changes, medication, and ongoing support, many women with PCOS go on to lead healthy lives and have successful pregnancies.

If any of these symptoms sound familiar, please reach out.

Dr Berios takes a personalised approach to diagnosing and managing PCOS, and we are here to support you.

March is here, and it's a month that is very close to our hearts. March is officially Endometriosis Awareness Month, a time dedicated to shining a light on a condition that affects 1 in 10 women of reproductive age.

Endometriosis causes tissue similar to the lining of the uterus to grow outside it, leading to chronic pain, heavy periods, and in many cases, difficulty falling pregnant. Despite how common it is, it still takes an average of 7 years for women to receive a diagnosis.

This month, we encourage every woman to listen to her body. If something doesn't feel right, please don't brush it aside. Dr Berios is here to listen, to investigate, and to help you find answers.

Gestational diabetes affects about 5 to 10% of pregnancies. Understanding it is the first step to managing it well.

What is it?
It's a type of diabetes that develops during pregnancy when your body can't produce enough insulin to keep up with the extra demands.

Risk factors:
· Family history of diabetes
· Being overweight before pregnancy
· Previous gestational diabetes
· PCOS

How is it managed?
· Regular blood sugar monitoring
· Balanced diet and portion control
· Staying active (with your doctor's approval)
· Medication if needed
The good news? With proper care and monitoring, most women with gestational diabetes go on to have healthy pregnancies and healthy babies. Dr. Berios will be with you every step of the way.
