Obesity is present in 30-75% of women with PCOS. Adipose dysfunction (fat cell dysfunction) is associated with glucose intolerance and hyperinsulinemia, which in turn can exaggerate the manifestations of hyperandrogenism viz, hirsuitism, acne, hyperpigmentation and baldness.

Obese women with PCOS are at increased risk of anovulation and consequent subfertility. All these manifestations ultimately lead to co-morbid depression and stress which further causes hormonal imbalance and thus vicious cycle continues.

Obesity and sedentary lifestyle welcome new co-morbidities like Type 2 Diabetes, dyslipidemia, high blood pressure and heart disease. These detrimental effects of obesity in PCOS, ultimately lead to adverse impact on Quality of life of patient. Healthy and happy lifestyle is the only answer to it.
