A woman’s reproductive health plays an important role in her life.
For most women, reproductive health is a sensitive subject – many women suffer in silence – embarrassed to discuss reproductive health issues such as severe period pain, irregular and absent menstrual cycles, ovulation problems, unexplained weight gain, unwanted hair growth, acne and the strain that struggles with fertility can have on their relationships.
In fact, most women aren’t aware that many of the reproductive health issues they’re experiencing are associated with a genetic, hormonal, metabolic and reproductive disorder called Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS).
Sadly, this means that thousands of women remain undiagnosed and untreated, which increases the risk of serious long-term complications such as diabetes, insulin resistance, hypertension or endometrial cancer.
According to a study, up to 82% of women who are diagnosed were unaware of their condition until it began to affect their fertility journey.
For this reason, Sinpol is putting Fertility In Focus on Lunch with Pippa Hudson between 13.00 and 15.00 on 14 December.

If you’re undiagnosed, this list could help you identify whether you should consider treating your reproductive health issues with Sinopol.

Anovulation
Anovulation is a menstrual cycle without ovulation. It happens when an egg is not released from your ovary into the fallopian tubes during your period. This means that the hormones in your brain are not telling your body to prepare for the release of an egg and the egg is not fertilised, which results in no ovulation and no possibility of getting pregnant.
Increased testosterone (androgen) levels
While testosterone is considered a male sex hormone, women also produce small amounts of the hormone in their ovaries and adrenal glands. However, testosterone imbalances or increased androgens in women can cause irregular periods, acne, unwanted hair on the face and body, thinning of hair and obesity.
Insulin Resistance
Insulin is a hormone that the pancreas makes to allow cells to absorb and use blood sugar. However, when cells cannot absorb blood sugar, the cells begin to store glucose which leads to the cells becoming resistant to the …….
