    In women with polycystic ovary syndrome, not every hormone necessary for the full maturation of an egg can be produced. Since none of the eggs can mature and crack from the ovary, ovulation cannot occur and the hormone progesterone cannot be produced. This situation causes the menstruations to be irregular or not at all.
    The insulin hormone is a hormone produced by the pancreas that regulates the level of glucose in the blood. ""Insulin resistance"" is observed in many women with polycystic ovary syndrome. In insulin resistance; body tissues resist the action of insulin and as a result, the body is forced to produce more insulin. Very high levels of insulin hormone in the body; It also affects the ovaries, causing hormonal imbalance; excess insulin production also increases androgen production, thus forming a complete vicious cycle. Women with polycystic ovary syndrome tend to gain weight and the reason for difficult weight loss is this disorder observed in insulin metabolism.
