PCOS
Poly Cystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) is the most common endocrinopathy in women of reproductive age. When the deranged vata etc. vitiates the mamsa, shonita and meda mixed up with Kapha; thus they produce a glandular swelling called ‘Granthi’ (‘cyst’ in modern terminology) an abnormal closed epithelium- lined cavity in the body, containing liquid or semisolid material.
