Woman with PCOS are known to have high levels of male hormones called androgens in the blood stream, which is taken directly to the uterus hence, exposing the unborn baby as well. Unfortunately the cause behind this is still unknown.

It is due to these increased hormones that the patient begins to feel depressed and tends to stay in anxiety.  PCOS is not just an issue that the mother suffers as it’s genetic and passes on with the new born baby. The girl baby on growing up is very likely to develop PCOS conditions when she becomes pregnant and if the baby is a boy then on growing up the boy is likely to be suffering from obesity and Type 1 diabetes. In some rare cases even leads to short life expectancy.
