Understanding PCOS and Hormonal Imbalance
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is one of the most common hormonal disorders affecting reproductive-age women. It involves a complex interaction of metabolic, hormonal, and inflammatory changes that can affect:
- Menstrual cycles
- Ovulation
- Insulin sensitivity
- Weight regulation
- Mood and energy levels
While much attention is placed on diet and exercise, sleep is often overlooked—even though it plays a major role in hormone regulation.
