The document discusses Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS), including its symptoms, causes, diagnosis, and treatment. Key symptoms of PCOS include irregular periods, excess hair growth, and weight gain. The Rotterdam criteria are commonly used for diagnosis of PCOS based on the presence of hyperandrogenism, ovarian dysfunction, and polycystic ovaries. Treatment options include lifestyle changes like diet and exercise, medication like metformin, and surgery like laparoscopic ovarian drilling.

Major symptoms of PCOS include irregular or absent menstrual periods, excess hair growth (hirsutism), acne, and weight gain due to insulin resistance. Women with PCOS also have a higher risk of conditions like diabetes and heart disease.

The most commonly used diagnostic criteria for PCOS are the Rotterdam criteria, which require at least two of the following three features: hyperandrogenism (high levels of "male hormones"), ovarian dysfunction (irregular ovulation), and polycystic ovaries visible on ultrasound.
