5 Common Endocrine Disorders Affecting Female Fertility
Our endocrine system includes various glands that are responsible for controlling important body processes and the production of hormones. Any imbalance in the hormonal levels can be the major cause behind the development of endocrine disorders, which not only impacts your mood, and weight but also increases the risks of infertility.
If you’re having issues conceiving a baby and also suffer from any endocrine disorders or have hormonal imbalances then you can contact an infertility specialist to avail of IVF in Siliguri. The IVF treatment will assist you in having a successful pregnancy despite the ovulation issues developed due to the endocrine disorders.
Given below are some of the most common endocrine disorders that have a huge impact on female fertility rates.
Diabetes
Diabetes is the most common endocrine disorder that decreases the lifespan of the female reproductive system. The high sugar levels in the blood in diabetic patients have been found as a major cause behind premature ovarian aging, which often leads to early menopause and hence, infertility. Uncontrolled diabetes can also degrade the micro-environment of the egg and reduce the egg quality, ovarian hormone synthesis, and ovulation process. The chance of pelvic organ infections especially in the fallopian tubes and ovaries also increases with diabetes which also higher the chances of infertility.
Amenorrhea
Amenorrhea is another endocrine disorder that affects your menstrual cycle and reduces the chances of getting pregnant. Primary and secondary amenorrhea are the two main types of this health condition which leads to missed periods. Amenorrhea not only leads to missed periods but also causes unsuccessful ovary function. This condition is not directly related to infertility but it is obvious that without menstrual periods and ovulation, it is impossible to become pregnant.
Hypo and Hyperthyroidism
Hypothyroidism is an endocrine disorder that is also associated with female infertility. This is because, with this health condition, the thyroid gland becomes unable to produce the essential hormones. Low thyroid hormone levels interfere with the process of releasing eggs which further causes infertility. On the other hand, hyperthyroidism also develops various complications in the female reproductive system that make it difficult to get pregnant. Some of the fertility issues developed by this disorder are preeclampsia, loss of pregnancy, and menstrual disruptions.
PCOS
PCOS or polycystic ovary syndrome is an endocrine disorder, which is a well-known cause of infertility. Hormonal imbalance is the major symptom of PCOS that interferes with the ovulation process and growth of the embryo. The increased chances of miscarriage, spontaneous abortion, insulin resistance, reduced quality of oocytes, and anovulation are also associated with PCOS. PCOS can also increase the chances of developing ovarian cysts and irregular periods, which can also reduce fertility rates.
Cushing's Disease
The increased production of cortisol is the key complication of Cushing’s disease that can negatively impact the female reproductive system. The chances of developing amenorrhea and menstrual irregularities also increase with it. This disease also suppresses the essential pituitary hormones required for proper ovary function, which leads to infertility. Availing of the effective treatments of IVF in Siliguri can be the best way to enjoy parenthood if you’re suffering from serious endocrine disorders that are affecting your fertility. You can also indulge in lifestyle improvements such as maintaining a healthy weight, eating a proper diet, and exercising to reduce the risks of endocrine disorders.

Disabilities that You Should Consider Representing in Your Writing More… part 1
[large text: Disabilities that You Should Consider Representing in Your Writing More… part 1]
While all disabilities are underrepresented in basically all sorts of media, it’s hard to not notice the trend in what disabilities make up the majority of representation. It’s especially visible when having a blog like this, where we can see what disabilities writers even consider including in their writing, and which ones never come up.
One in four people are disabled. With eight billion people alive it means there’s a lot of disabled people, and a lot of reasons why they are disabled in the first place - but this diversity is rarely represented, even on this blog, and anyone who has been following for a while has probably noticed that fact.
To be blunt: there are disabilities other than “amputee” and “(otherwise invisibly disabled) mobility aid user”. Does that mean that it’s wrong to write either of those? Of course not, and we don’t want to imply that it is. Does it mean that either of these have a ton of good representation? Hell no. Does it mean that when you are deciding on what to give your character, you should think beyond (or along! people can be multiply disabled!) just those two? Absolutely. Disability is a spectrum with thousands of things in it - don’t limit yourself for no reason and embrace the diversity that’s built into it instead.
This is, simply, a list of common disabilities. This is just a few of them, as this is part one of presumably many (or, at least three as of right now). By “common” we rather arbitrarily decided on “~1% or more” - so at least 1 in 100 people has the disabilities below, which is a lot. Featuring!: links that you should click, sources of the % that are mostly just medical reports and might be hard to read, and quick, very non-exhaustive explanations to give you a basic idea of what these are.
Intellectual disability (about 1.5%) Intellectual disability is a condition we have written about at length before. It’s a developmental disability that affects things such as conceptualization, language, problem-solving, or social and self-care skills. ID can exist on its own or be a part of another condition, like Down Syndrome, Congenital Iodine Deficiency, or Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders. This post covers a lot of basic information that you might need. We have an intellectual disability tag that you can look through!
Cancer survivors (5.4% in the US, about 0.55% worldwide) A cancer survivor is a pretty self-explanatory term. There is a lot of types of cancer and some of them are very common while others are very rare, which makes this a very diverse category. Cancers also have different survival rates. While not every survivor will have disabling symptoms, they definitely happen. Most of the long-term side effects are related to chemotherapy, radiation, and other medication, especially if they happened in children. They can include all sorts of organ damage, osteoporosis, cognitive problems, sensory disabilities, infertility, and increased rate of other cancers. Other effects include removal of the affected area, such as an eye, a spleen, breasts, or the thyroid gland, each of which will have different outcomes. Cancer, and cancer treatments, can also result in PTSD.
Diabetes (about 8.5%, ~95% of that are type 2) Diabetes is a group of endocrine conditions that cause hyperglycemia (high blood sugar) for various reasons depending on the type. The vast majority of people have type 2 diabetes, which can cause fatigue, poor healing, or feeling thirsty or hungry. A diabetic person will use insulin when needed to help manage their blood sugar levels. There are many complications related to diabetes, from neuropathy, to retinopathy, and chronic kidney disease, and there's a lot of disabilities that coexist with diabetes in general! You might want to check out the #how to write type 1 diabetes tag by @type1diabetesinfandom!
Disabling vision loss (about 7.5%) Blindness and low vision are a spectrum, ranging from total blindness (around 10% of legally blind people) to mild visual impairment. Blindness can be caused by countless things, but cataracts, refractive errors, and glaucoma are the most common. While cataracts cause the person to have a clouded pupil (not the whole eye!) blind eyes usually look average, with strabismus or nystagmus being exceptions to that fairly often (but not always). Trauma isn't a common cause of blindness, and accidents are overrepresented in fiction. A blind person can use a white cane, a guide dog or horse, or both. Assistive solutions are important here, such as Braille, screenreaders, or magnifying glasses. We have a blindness tag that you can look through, and you might want to check out @blindbeta and @mimzy-writing-online.
Psoriasis (about 2-4%) Psoriasis is a chronic skin condition with multiple subtypes; it can cause intense itching, pain, and general discomfort, and often carries social stigma. It’s an autoimmune and non-contagious disability that affects the skin cells, resulting in raised patches of flaky skin covered with scales. It often (30%) leads to a related condition, psoriatic arthritis, which causes joint pain, tenderness, and fatigue, among other things.
Stroke survivors (0.5-1%) A stroke survivor is a person who has survived any kind of stroke (ischemic, hemorrhagic, etc.). While the specific symptoms often depend on the exact location on where the stroke happened, signs such as hemiplegia, slurred speech, vision problems, and cognitive changes are common in most survivors to some degree. When someone has a stroke as a baby, or before they are born, it can result in cerebral palsy, epilepsy, and other disabilities. We have a brain injury tag that you can look through!
Noonan Syndrome (about 0.1-1% - mild is 1%, severe 0.1%) Noonan Syndrome is a disability that is almost never mentioned in any context, but certainly not around the topic of writing disabled characters. It’s a congenital condition that can cause cardiomyopathy, chronic joint pain, hypermobility, short stature, facial differences such as ptosis, autism, and various lymphatic problems among other things. Some people with Noonan Syndrome might use mobility aids to help with their joint pain.
Hyperthyroidism (about 1.2%) Hyperthyroidism is a condition of the endocrine system caused by hormone overproduction that affects metabolism. It often results in irritability, weight loss, heat intolerance, tremors, mood swings, or insomnia. Undertreated hyperthyroidism has a rare, but extremely dangerous side effect associated with it called a thyroid storm, which can be fatal if untreated.
Hypothyroidism (>5%) Hypothyroidism is an endocrine condition just as hyperthyroidism is, and it causes somewhat opposite symptoms. Due to not producing enough thyroid hormones, it often causes fatigue, depression, hair loss, weight gain, and a frequent feeling of being cold. It’s often comorbid with other autoimmune disabilities, e.g. vitiligo, chronic autoimmune gastritis, and rheumatoid arthritis. Extreme hypothyroidism can also be potentially fatal because of a condition known as Myxedema coma (or “crisis”), which is also rare.
Deafblindness (about 0.2-2%) Being DeafBlind is often considered to be an extremely rare disability, but that’s not really the case. DeafBlindness on its own isn’t a diagnosis - it can be caused by a wide range of things, with CHARGE syndrome (congenital), Usher syndrome (born deaf, becomes blind later in life), congenital rubella, and age-related deafness and blindness being some of the most common reasons. DeafBlindness is a wide spectrum, the vast majority of DeafBlind people aren’t fully blind and deaf, and they can use various ways of communication. Some of these could be sign language (tactile or not), protactile, the deafblind manual, oral speech (aided by hearing aids or not), the Lorm alphabet, and more. You can learn more about assistive devices here! Despite what various media like to tell you, being DeafBlind isn’t a death sentence, and the DeafBlind community and culture are alive and thriving - especially since the start of the protactile movement. We have a DeafBlindness tag that you can look through!
It’s probably worth mentioning that we have received little to no asks in general for almost all the disabilities above, and it’s certainly not due to what mods answer for. Our best guess is that writers don’t realize how many options they have and just end up going for the same things over and over.
Only representing “cool” disabilities that are “not too much while having a particular look/aura/drama associated” isn’t what you should aim for. Disabled people just exist, and all of us deserve to be represented, including those whose disabilities aren’t your typical “cool design” or “character inspo”. Sometimes we are just regular people, with disabilities that are “boring” or “too much”, and don’t make for useful plot points.

Would you please be kind enough to share your views on sunscreens
Please ignore if this is stupid lol
Y'all really enjoy asking me questions that will make people hate me.
Sunscreen is. So bad. It's probably the cause of non-traction alopecia in a lot of women, it's a known endocrine disruptor, and most components are known carcinogens. Every few years, formulas get pulled from the market en masse because a common ingredient was found to be more carcinogenic than UV damage. That doesn't mean all sunscreens — zinc and titanium oxide is probably fine, but titanium is a heavy metal and zinc overload can happen, especially if you're applying as much and as frequently as you should.
Now, I'm not saying you should never wear sunscreen. Humans are chronically indoors and if you decide to leave your 60-hours-a-week office job for a ten day bar crawl across the beaches of Bali, you should probably wear sunblock. You have no natural protection. But when I trekked through the national parks between Florida and South Carolina for a couple of weeks, I barely even got a tan, despite wearing no sunscreen and being out in the afternoon sun. In August. In Georgia.
Of course, a lot of it comes down to the lifestyle we're leading now. We live indoors, we eat trash food that has no nutrients, and we shut down natural adaptations when they occur. Sunglasses trick your brain into not releasing the correct amount of melatonin, causing sunburns. Malnutrition means we don't have enough vitamins and minerals to build strong cell walls that are resistant to UV damage.
Honestly, in today's day and age, it's sixes if you'll get cancer from the sun or from sunscreen. But sunscreen cancers are more likely to be reproductive or glandular, which is difficult to fix and has lifelong repercussions. Skin cancer is relatively easy — treatment is highly targeted, rarely reaching into organs or muscles, and being aware of your body and new moles and patches is the number one way to prevent death from the sun. I personally would much rather a doctor cut chunks out of my flesh every couple of months than deal with germ cell cancer that spreads to my lungs and my lymph nodes, requires years of surgery, causes lymphedema, renders me infertile, and gives me even more digestive issues.
That's really the decision you're making every time you put on sunscreen. So. Which type of cancer would you prefer?

Almost all Days have polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and have struggled with their weight for most of their lives.
PCOS, in short, is an endocrine disorder that can cause acne, obesity, excess hair growth, menstrual irregularity, infertility, and other hormonal issues.
Thisday, of course being male, has not had this struggle, and so he is not included in this, but nearly every female Day has PCOS and has struggled with it.
Thursday, being my main Day here, is overweight and has had irregular periods ever since puberty. In her mid-20's she got into a serious long-term relationship with a man named Andrew, with whom she tried to have children. They tried for over two years without success before seeking medical help, only for that to reach a dead end. Living in the United States, even with insurance they couldn't afford the expensive fertility treatments required for Thursday - then Charlotte - to get pregnant.
This was obviously devastating to both of them, particularly to Thursday. While she hadn't always wanted children, being told she couldn't have them struck her as a heavy blow. Her mother had been hounding her (and not her brothers) for grandchildren, and there was a part of her that did want a child of her own.
Unable to accept not being able to have biological children with her, and not being able to afford alternatives, Andrew left Thursday. He eventually got into a new relationship where he did father children, much to Thursday's pain. She was happy for him, but it also felt like salt being rubbed in an already terrible wound.
Doomsday, having nearly the same life history as Thursday, also had this same experience in her life in her own timeline.
Years later, after events in the office, Thursday was finally able to have a baby. Doomsday robbed a genetics storage facility and provided Thursday with the materials needed to make it happen, and with a stroke of luck it did. PCOS does not necessarily mean a person is 100% infertile, although it many cases it makes getting pregnant impossible without medical assistance. A person with PCOS can get pregnant without medical assistance, it's just a lot more difficult. Thursday got lucky with Mae!
All Days adore Mae as their own because, essentially, she is! She is precious to them.
A little bit more information about Doomsday - with her being a ghost now, she can alter her own appearance. There are some things she doesn't have control over, like her skin tone, body temperature, and lack of eyes, but her body size is something she can change. Since she struggled with her weight her whole life, she now chooses to appear thinner. If she were to ever become revived, her body would return to the shape it was before - chonky and huggable. :p

PCOD / PCOS
PCOS, or Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome, has become increasingly common among women of reproductive age in recent years. Women who have this condition may have irregular or altered menstrual cycles. The ovaries may also grow a lot of fluid-filled sacks that are incapable of releasing eggs. An endocrine disorder called PCOS/PCOD is a major contributor to infertility. Subfertility is a term used to describe a condition where a person is trying to get pregnant but is having a difficult time.
Best Ayurveda treatment for PCOD and PCOS
SYMPTOMS OF PCOS/PCOD
These are some of the typical PCOS/PCOD symptoms.
Period irregularities: Women may experience irregular menstrual cycles.
Missed Periods: Missed periods may occasionally last a long time. This may continue for several months.
Severe bleeding: This is caused by a thicker than usual uterine lining. Females can have prolonged periods of heavy bleeding.
Hair growth: The back, belly, chest, and face may all experience excessive hair growth. This ailment, also known as hirsutism, can be an annoying PCOS symptom.
Acne: Areas like the face, chest, and back are more likely to experience breakouts.
Obesity: Studies have shown that managing one’s weight can significantly lessen the symptoms of PCOS in up to 80% of females who have the condition.
Hair thinning and loss: Women with PCOS/PCOD may experience hair thinning and loss. The body’s overabundance of androgens is the cause of this.
Skin darkening: The nose, groin, under the breasts, and other places may develop dark skin pigmentation or patchy skin growth.
Headaches: A hormonal imbalance known as PCOS or PCOD can occasionally result in headaches.
Pelvic pain and fatigue: Women with PCOS may experience feelings of discomfort, such as pain in the pelvic area, along with fatigue.
REASONS BEHIND PCOS
High levels of androgen
A woman’s body contains a small amount of male hormones known as androgens. However, in PCOS, the amount of male hormones increases, which can prevent the ovaries from producing eggs during the monthly menstrual cycle. This can cause acne and excessive hair growth in women, which is one of the main symptoms of PCOS.
High levels of insulin
The insulin hormone is in charge of regulating the body’s glucose levels. PCOS is a condition in which many women have insulin resistance, which means that the glucose in the blood is not being used properly by their cells. Women are more likely than men to have a family history of Type 2 Diabetes. To avoid Type 2 Diabetes in the future, lifestyle changes are advised.Obesity and unhealthy lifestyle leads to PCOS
AYURVEDIC APPROACH TO PCOD/PCOS / Best Ayurveda treatment for PCOD and PCOS
According to the ancient texts of Ayurveda, it is referred to as “Granthi” in some cases, which refers to the development of abnormalities such as cysts, ulcers, lumps, or tumors. According to Ayurveda, PCOS is caused by imbalance of Rasa and Rakta Dhatus, as well as an imbalance in the three Doshas of the body (Vata, Pitta, and Kapha). These Rasa-Rakta Dhatus are weakened as a result of Dosha imbalance and Ama (toxins) buildup in the body. This can result in cyst formation and other PCOS symptoms.
Normally, the Vata Dosha dominates the reproductive system, and the female reproductive organs are made of “Artava Dhatu,” which nourishes the ovum. Vata Dosha is in charge of the follicle and ovum movement into the uterine fallopian tubes. The sub-dosha “Apana Vayu” is in charge of the downward flow or menstrual flow. Pitta Dosha is important for hormone production and balance in the body. The Kapha Dosha is in charge of nourishing and promoting follicle, uterine, and ovum tissue growth. As a result, a harmonious balance of the three Doshas is essential for producing healthy hormones and maintaining the health of the female reproductive system.
Best Ayurveda treatment for PCOD and PCOS
Ayurveda, as a holistic system of treatment, provides an all-encompassing treatment approach that addresses the underlying cause of this condition. This treatment can be tailored to an individual’s needs, and it is always best to consult an Ayurvedic expert before beginning any treatment or therapy. The goal of Ayurveda Treatment for PCOD is to-
Ayurvedic detoxification of the body to remove accumulated toxins
The female reproductive system should be strengthened, revitalized, and nourished.
Maintaining the body’s hormonal balance
Weight loss and insulin resistance correction
AYURVEDA DIET FOR MANAGING PCOS/PCOD SYMPTOMS:
The goal of following this Ayurvedic diet is to nourish the Aartava Dhatu in females.
Organic fruits and vegetables, such as raisins, pears, plums, dates, and figs, should be consumed by PCOS women. Fruits and berries in season should be included in the diet.
To boost the Agni (Digestive fire), avoid spicy foods, fermented foods, dairy products, buttermilk, and so on.
Consume Ragi (nachini, Eleusine coracana) grains.
Avoid taking added sugar or sugary foods, as well as artificial sweeteners.
AYURVEDA TREATMENT FOR PCOD INVOLVES-
Herbs like Ashwagandha, Turmeric, Shatavari, Varuna, Haritaki, Pippali, Bilva, Agnimantha, Punarvana, Guduchi, Chitraka, Shunthi, Dashmool, Shatapushpa, and others are very effective for balancing the tridoshas and Dhatus.
Panchakarma, ayurvedic therapies, Yoga and breathing exercises (Pranayama) . Dietary changes include increasing the consumption of fruits, vegetables, and whole grains while decreasing the consumption of saturated fats, salt, refined sugar, and refined carbs.
Varunadi Kashaya, Chitrakadi Vati, Triphala Guggulu, Punarvadi Kashaya, Shatavari Gulam, and other Ayurvedic formulations are effective.
PANCHAKARMA TREATMENT FOR PCOS/PCOD / Best Ayurveda treatment for PCOD and PCOS
Panchakarma Treatment is recommended to treat the underlying cause by removing toxins from the reproductive system and empowering the various organs such as the uterus, ovaries and Fallopian tubes. This Panchakarma Treatment also aids in the maintenance of the body’s hormonal balance.
Vamana
This is a cleansing technique used primarily to expel vitiated ‘Kapha.’ In PCOS, Vamana (therapeutic emesis or therapeutic vomiting) process helps to balance the vitiated kapha dosha.
Virechana
This therapy aids in the restoration of the vitiated Pitta Dosha. It involves cleansing the small intestine and improves Dosha elimination via the rectal route. It restores the female body’s hormonal balance.
Basti (Vastu)
This panchakarma therapy, which uses various types of herbal oils, Ghruta, milk, and other decoctions, is extremely effective in balancing the vitiated Vata Dosha. When specific oils are used for Basti, it aids in the regularisation of ovulation. So, Basti can help with infertility treatment, hormone balancing, PCOS treatment, fallopian tube blockage removal, and so on.
Uttarbasti (Vasti)
Uttarbasti (Vasti) is a highly effective treatment for gynecological conditions. In the case of PCOS, Uttarbasti aids in the dissolution of ovarian cysts, the flushing of the Aartava Vaha Srotas, the pacification of the vitiated Apana Vayu, and the increase of follicular maturity.
Fertility Massage
This is a gentle massage of the lower abdomen performed in a specific pattern to improve the natural functioning of the uterus. It also improves blood circulation in the lower pelvic region.

PCOD vs PCOS: Understanding the Differences and Symptoms
PCOD Vs PCOS Key Differences
PCOD Vs PCOS Do you understand both are same? Many women get confused between the two terms. If you are someone who menstruates, or you have had enough interactions with people who menstruate, you have probably heard of PCOD or PCOS at some point in your life. In fact, despite similarities like being related to the ovaries and causing hormonal disturbances, the two conditions are different.
So let us know further how exactly they are different from each other, and what their causes, treatment, symptoms could be, etc.
What is PCOD:-
PCOD (polycystic ovarian disease) is caused primarily by a combination of hormonal imbalances and genetic predisposition. In a normal menstrual cycle, both ovaries release mature, fertilization-ready eggs in turn each month. However, the ovaries of a person affected by PCOD often release either immature or only partially mature eggs, which can develop into cysts (small sacs filled with fluid).
In PCOD, the ovary starts releasing immature eggs which leads to hormonal imbalance and swelling of the ovaries in addition to some different symptoms, while in PCOS the ovaries produce excess androgens due to endocrine issues, causing ovulation. There is a risk of becoming a CYST. These cysts won’t, however, be released like in PCOD – rather they build up in the ovaries themselves
Main Symptoms of PCOD
Irregular menstrual cycles can be a common concern for many individuals.
Weight gain
Acne and oily skin are common skin concerns
Hair thinning
Feeling tired and worn out.
About 20% of cases (based on data collected on Indian women) may need fertility drugs or other treatments to enhance fertility if they wish to conceive
What is PCOS:-
PCOS (Polycystic Ovary Syndrome) is a metabolic disorder that affects women during their reproductive years, typically between the ages of 12 and 51, and is characterized by hormonal imbalances an increase in male hormones can cause females to skip menstrual periods and experience irregular ovulation, making it difficult to conceive. It can also lead to abnormal hair growth on the body and face. Over time, these issues may increase the risk of heart disease and diabetes. PCOS is a serious medical condition that requires appropriate medical care or surgical intervention.
Main Symptoms of PCOS
Severe menstrual irregularities
Excess facial and body hair (hirsutism)
Persistent acne Obesity or challenges in losing weight
Infertility concerns
Increased risk of diabetes and heart disease
PCOS is among the most prevalent endocrine disorders affecting women, and it can lead to significant issues related to reproductive, metabolic, and overall health.
**Differences Between PCOS and PCOD**
1. **Seriousness of the Condition**
**PCOD**: Generally viewed as a less serious issue. Most cases can be managed through lifestyle adjustments such as a balanced diet, regular exercise, and effective stress management. Medical treatment is not always necessary.
**PCOS**: This is a more serious endocrine disorder that typically requires medical intervention, often involving hormonal therapies to help manage the condition.
2. **Prevalence**
**PCOD**: More prevalent among women, affecting about one-third of all menstruating women worldwide.
**PCOS**: While less common than PCOD, it is not rare. Research from Southern India and Maharashtra indicates that approximately 9.13% of menstruating women in these regions have PCOS, compared to 22.5% with PCOD.
3. **Impact on Fertility**
*PCOD**: Fertility challenges exist but are generally less severe. With lifestyle modifications and minimal medical support, pregnancy is usually achievable
4. **Cause of the Disorder**
**PCOD**: Primarily associated with lifestyle factors such as poor nutrition, stress, and insufficient physical activity.
**PCOS**: This disorder stems from hormonal imbalances within the endocrine system, often linked to genetic predispositions or metabolic issues.
5.**Social Perception and Awareness**
**PCOD and PCOS**: Both conditions face social stigma and misinformation, particularly in Indian culture. As they relate to menstruation and fertility, these topics are often considered taboo, resulting in limited discussions and understanding. This lack of dialogue hinders proper awareness of these prevalent health issues
PCOD and PCOS: Finding the Right Path to Treatment
Treatment for PCOD includes:
Following a balanced diet and cutting down on sugar
Engaging in regular exercise to keep a healthy weight
Managing stress with practices such as yoga or meditation
Taking medications to regulate periods if necessary.
Treatment for PCOS includes:-
Hormonal therapy to help regulate androgen levels,
Addressing metabolic concerns like insulin resistance,
Fertility treatments for women who are planning to conceive,
Lifestyle changes that are similar to those recommended for PCOD
Conclusion:-
Recognizing the distinctions between PCOD and PCOS is essential for effective management. The key difference lies in the fact that PCOD typically involves less severe hormonal imbalances and can often be addressed through lifestyle adjustments, whereas PCOS is a more intricate condition that necessitates both medical intervention and lifestyle changes. Suppose you are facing symptoms and are uncertain about the differences between PCOS and PCOD. In that case, it is advisable to seek guidance from a healthcare professional for an accurate diagnosis and tailored care plan.

The Benefits of HCG Peptide
As a compound material with similar benefits with LH,HCG peptide have significant treating meaning on the researches of reproductive health and hormone regulation.No matter for women or man,by injecting HCG powder,you will get some surprises:
As for women,its benefits are focus on pregnancy and ovulation:
Pregnancy Protection: As one of the most important progesterone hormones, progesterone not only helps to confirm pregnancy at an early stage, but also creates a favorable environment in the uterus for the development of the embryo. At the same time, it can also reduce miscarriage due to luteal function and lower the chance of miscarriage.
Promotes ovulation and follicular maturation: As a human chorionic gonadotropin analog that mimics LH, HCG peptide is effective in promoting follicular maturation, which in women with ovulation disorders can help to promote ovulation and improve the chances of conception.
Increase luteal levels: In early pregnancy, when low levels of progesterone usually lead to miscarriage, HCG administration stimulates the production of more progesterone, increasing luteal levels in the body. This improves the chances of conception and provides sufficient hormones for fetal development and growth.
Endocrine balancing: HCG peptides can help regulate low levels of luteinizing hormone caused by endocrine disorders, which can lead to failure to ovulate. HCG peptides can promote ovulation and maintain normal ovarian function by balancing the endocrine system.
Infertility Treatment: HCG is also a noted benefit in the treatment of female infertility due to its ability to help maintain luteal function and improve the quality of follicles. This mechanism gives female infertility patients a possibility to improve their chances of getting pregnant.
As for man,HCG peptide can be used to promote the level of testosterone and help with building body:
Increase testosterone levels: As one of the most important male sex hormones, testosterone can help improve libido levels and muscle mass. HCG peptide stimulates the testes to increase testosterone levels in the body and help treat erectile dysfunction and improve sexual function.
Promotes the development of secondary sexual characteristics: HCG peptide’s effect on testosterone can be helpful for males with delayed puberty, which can be seen in the development of secondary sexual characteristics, such as beard growth, voice changes, and muscle development.
Improved muscle mass: Testosterone can help improve muscle mass and endurance in users, and HCG stimulates the release and production of testosterone and improves bone density in users, which not only improves athletic performance but also prevents fractures and reduces the risk of osteoporosis.
Maintaining physical fitness: One of the most important manifestations of increased testosterone levels is a feeling of energy, which is exciting for men who are often fatigued, and studies have shown that HCG can alleviate anxiety and depression and improve overall mental health and cognitive performance.
Treating male infertility: Similar to treating female infertility, HCG’s ability to stimulate sperm production and improve sperm quality is important in treating infertility caused by sperm, which can greatly increase the success rate of conception.

Introduction
Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is a hormonal disorder affecting millions of women worldwide. It can manifest in various ways, from irregular periods and excessive hair growth to infertility and weight gain. This blog post will delve into the intricacies of PCOS, exploring its symptoms, potential causes, and the role of homeopathy in managing this condition.
What is PCOS?
PCOS is a complex endocrine disorder characterized by an imbalance of hormones, primarily androgens (male hormones). This hormonal imbalance can lead to a variety of symptoms, including:
Irregular or absent periods: This is a hallmark sign of PCOS.
Excessive hair growth : This can occur on the face, chest, and other areas of the body.
oily skin: Increased androgen levels can stimulate oil production.
Weight gain and difficulty losing weight: Insulin resistance is common in PCOS, making weight management challenging.
hair loss: This can occur on the scalp.
Cysts on the ovaries: These are small, fluid-filled sacs that can develop on the ovaries.
Infertility: PCOS can interfere with ovulation, making it difficult to conceive.
Possible Causes of PCOS
The exact cause of PCOS remains unknown, but several factors are believed to play a role:
Genetics: PCOS has a strong genetic component.
Insulin resistance: This condition prevents the body from effectively using insulin, leading to increased androgen production.
Inflammation: Low-grade inflammation may contribute to the development of PCOS.
Homeopathic Treatment for PCOS
Homeopathy offers a broad approach to managing PCOS symptoms. It focuses on treating the individual as a whole, rather than just addressing the symptoms. Homeopathic remedies are carefully selected based on a comprehensive assessment of the patient's unique symptoms and constitution.

How Expert Endocrinologists Diagnose And Treat Thyroid Disorders?
Thyroid disorders are prevalent health conditions that affect millions globally, with symptoms that can be both subtle and impactful. Expert endocrinologists like Dr Subhankar Chowdhury endocrinologist are pivotal in identifying and managing these disorders effectively. This blog delves into the diagnostic and treatment approaches employed by specialists, highlighting why expert care is essential.
What Are Thyroid Disorders and Their Impact on Health?
The thyroid gland, located in the front of the neck, is a critical component of the endocrine system. It produces hormones that regulate metabolism, energy levels, and overall bodily functions. When this gland malfunctions, it can lead to two primary types of disorders:
Hypothyroidism (Underactive Thyroid): A condition where the thyroid produces insufficient hormones, causing symptoms like fatigue, weight gain, depression, and sensitivity to cold.
Hyperthyroidism (Overactive Thyroid): Characterized by excessive hormone production, leading to symptoms such as anxiety, weight loss, rapid heartbeat, and irritability.
These conditions can significantly affect one’s quality of life if left undiagnosed or untreated.
How Do Endocrinologists Diagnose Thyroid Disorders?
The diagnostic process begins with a thorough understanding of the patient’s medical history and presenting symptoms. Endocrinologists employ a range of advanced diagnostic tools, including:
Blood Tests:Tests for Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH), Free T3, and Free T4 levels help determine if the thyroid is underactive or overactive.
Thyroid Antibody Tests:These are used to detect autoimmune disorders like Hashimoto’s thyroiditis or Graves’ disease, which are common causes of thyroid dysfunction.
Ultrasound Imaging:High-resolution ultrasounds help visualize the thyroid gland for nodules, cysts, or enlargement (goiter).
Thyroid Scans and Uptake Tests:These nuclear medicine tests evaluate the gland's activity and structure, particularly in hyperthyroidism or nodular thyroid disease.
These precise diagnostic tools allow Dr Subhankar Chowdhury endocrinologist to pinpoint the underlying cause of thyroid issues and plan effective treatment strategies.
What Treatment Options Do Endocrinologists Offer for Thyroid Disorders?
Treatment is highly individualized, depending on the type and severity of the thyroid disorder:
Hypothyroidism:
Hormone Replacement Therapy:Patients are prescribed levothyroxine, a synthetic thyroid hormone, to normalize hormone levels. Regular monitoring ensures proper dosage adjustments.
Diet and Lifestyle Guidance:Endocrinologists may recommend dietary changes to support thyroid health.
Hyperthyroidism:
Antithyroid Medications:Drugs like methimazole or propylthiouracil (PTU) are used to reduce excessive hormone production.
Radioactive Iodine Therapy:This treatment destroys overactive thyroid cells, reducing hormone production to normal levels.
Surgery:In cases of severe hyperthyroidism or large goiters, partial or complete thyroidectomy (removal of the thyroid gland) may be recommended.
Nodules and Cancer:
If nodules are found to be cancerous, Dr Subhankar Chowdhury endocrinologist work closely with oncologists to develop a comprehensive treatment plan.
Why Is Specialist Care Essential for Thyroid Disorders?
Thyroid disorders often involve complex interactions within the endocrine system. Endocrinologists possess the specialized knowledge and tools required to address these intricacies. Regular follow-ups, adjustments to treatments, and ongoing patient education ensure:
Early Detection: Preventing complications like heart disease or infertility.
Optimal Management: Tailored treatments that improve quality of life.
Comprehensive Care: Addressing coexisting endocrine issues, such as adrenal or pituitary disorders.
Conclusion: A Proactive Approach to Thyroid Health
Endocrinologists like Prof. Dr. Subhankar Chowdhury are invaluable in diagnosing and treating thyroid disorders. With their expertise, patients receive accurate diagnoses, effective treatments, and long-term care plans that restore and maintain hormonal balance.
If you’re experiencing symptoms of thyroid dysfunction, consulting a specialist is a proactive step toward better health and well-being.

Low Testosterone: Causes, Symptoms, and When to Seek Help
At Ignite HRT, we believe that understanding the root cause of your health concerns is the first step toward living a vibrant, fulfilling life. Testosterone, a vital hormone for both men and women, plays a crucial role in regulating physical, emotional, and sexual well-being. When testosterone levels drop below the optimal range, it can lead to noticeable changes that impact your quality of life. This article explores the causes, symptoms, and when to seek help for low testosterone, with a focus on how Ignite HRT can support you on your journey to better health.
Causes of Low Testosterone
Testosterone levels naturally fluctuate throughout life. In men, levels typically peak during adolescence and early adulthood, but by the age of 35, testosterone production begins to decline at a rate of about 1–2% per year. While aging is the most common cause of low testosterone, other factors can also play a significant role:
1. Andropause (Male Menopause)
Andropause refers to the gradual decline of testosterone in men as they age. Often starting in the late 40s or early 50s, this natural process can lead to a range of symptoms, including fatigue, decreased libido, and reduced muscle mass.
2. Chronic Stress
Elevated cortisol levels due to ongoing stress can suppress testosterone production. Stress also affects sleep and overall well-being, compounding hormonal imbalances.
3. Health Conditions
Certain medical conditions, such as obesity, diabetes, and metabolic syndrome, are linked to low testosterone levels. Additionally, chronic illnesses like kidney disease or liver disorders can interfere with hormone production.
4. Lifestyle Choices
Poor nutrition, lack of exercise, and excessive alcohol consumption can negatively impact testosterone levels. Exposure to endocrine disruptors, such as pollutants and chemicals in plastics, may also contribute.
5. Medications and Medical Treatments
Certain medications, including opioids, steroids, and chemotherapy, can suppress testosterone production. Surgeries or injuries affecting the testicles can have a similar impact.
6. Genetic Factors
Inherited conditions, such as Klinefelter syndrome or other hormonal disorders, may cause low testosterone levels from birth.
Symptoms of Low Testosterone
Low testosterone, also known as hypogonadism, manifests in various ways, affecting physical, emotional, and sexual health. Common symptoms include:
1. Physical Symptoms
Fatigue: Persistent low energy levels, even after rest.
Reduced Muscle Mass: Difficulty building or maintaining muscle, despite exercise.
Increased Body Fat: Particularly around the abdomen, due to hormonal imbalance.
Bone Weakness: Lower bone density, increasing the risk of fractures.
2. Sexual Symptoms
Decreased Libido: Reduced interest in sexual activity.
Erectile Dysfunction: Difficulty achieving or maintaining erections.
Infertility: Reduced sperm count and quality.
3. Emotional and Mental Symptoms
Mood Changes: Increased irritability, anxiety, or feelings of depression.
Difficulty Concentrating: Brain fog, memory issues, or lack of focus.
4. Sleep Disturbances
Insomnia or poor sleep quality, often linked to other symptoms like fatigue and mood swings.
If you notice one or more of these symptoms persisting over time, it may indicate low testosterone.
When to Seek Help
While occasional fatigue or mood swings may not raise alarms, persistent or worsening symptoms could signal a more serious issue. Here are some key indicators that it’s time to consult a specialist:
1. Significant Lifestyle Changes
If symptoms like fatigue, decreased libido, or mood swings are affecting your ability to enjoy life, it’s essential to seek help.
2. Unexplained Physical Changes
Unexplained weight gain, muscle loss, or difficulty recovering from physical activity could point to hormonal imbalances.
3. Long-Term Health Risks
Low testosterone is linked to long-term health risks, including cardiovascular disease, osteoporosis, and metabolic disorders. Early intervention can mitigate these risks.
4. Impact on Relationships
A decline in libido or intimacy can strain personal relationships. Hormonal therapy can restore balance and confidence.

It encompasses the fusion of eggs and sperm in a laboratory setting, followed by the transfer of a healthy embryo into the uterus. IVF is renowned for its high success rates and is often advised for couples who have not achieved success with other treatments.
Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI): Frequently utilized within IVF scenarios where male infertility factors such as low sperm count or poor motility are prevalent. This technique involves directly injecting a single sperm into an egg for fertilization.
Egg and Sperm Donation: For situations where one partner is unable to produce viable eggs or sperm, donor alternatives exist to facilitate conception.
Surrogacy and Advanced ART Options: Certain clinics extend surrogacy services to patients who are unable to carry pregnancies due to medical reasons.
Counseling and Support Services: Emotional support plays a crucial role for individuals undergoing infertility treatments in Thane. Many clinics in Mumbai provide counseling services aimed at assisting patients in coping with the emotional dimensions of infertility challenges.
Choosing the most suitable IVF clinic in Mumbai represents a pivotal decision-making juncture. When evaluating clinics, it’s imperative to consider various factors ensuring you receive top-notch care:
Success Rate and Reputation: Opting for clinics with superior success rates and positive feedback from patients is advisable; reviewing testimonials and reaching out to former patients can offer valuable insights into a clinic’s standing.

Thursday has a condition called PCOS, or polycystic ovary syndrome. It is an endocrine disorder that - among issues with weight, metabolism, and acne - causes irregular periods, leading to infertility. Thursday has struggled with it ever since puberty.
In her mid-20′s she dated a guy named Caleb. They both wanted children and decided to try, but after trying for more than a year without success Thursday went to a specialist, where she was told she’d need to undergo expensive treatments and procedures in order to attempt having a baby. Unfortunately they were unable to afford it and so having a child naturally wasn’t an option. Caleb ended up breaking things off because he couldn’t handle not being able to have a biological child. Eventually he was able to father children in a new relationship, but Thursday was left severely hurt over it, and childless.
