The 3 main features of PCOS are: irregular periods – which means your ovaries do not regularly release eggs (ovulation) excess androgen – high levels of "male" hormones in your body, which may cause physical signs such as excess facial or body hair poly cystic ovaries – your ovaries become enlarged and contain many fluid-filled sacs (follicles) that surround the eggs (but despite the name, you do not actually have cysts if you have PCOS) If you have at least 2 of these features, you may be diagnosed with PCOS.
