PCOS, PCOD, and Endometriosis are NOT the same thing.
They’re often confused, but they are different conditions with different symptoms and treatments.
PCOS commonly involves irregular ovulation, irregular periods and signs of higher androgen levels such as excess facial or body hair.
Endometriosis is different. It can cause severe period pain, pelvic pain, and may affect fertility. Ovarian endometriosis can also form an endometrioma, often called a “chocolate cyst.”
And a simple ovarian cyst is different again. Many simple cysts are fluid-filled and can resolve on their own.
Same body. Different conditions. Different treatment. 🤍
