Women with polycystic ovary syndrome generally have higher levels of androgens, occasionally referred to as male hormones even though both genders make them, irregular or missed periods, and many small cysts found the ovaries. Currently, the exact cause of polycystic ovary syndrome is not known, though it is believed to stem from hormonal imbalances. Insulin is also believed to affect the condition and increased levels have been shown to an increase in a woman\u2019s quantity of androgens. High levels of androgens can cause a woman to have abnormal hair growth, acne, trouble with ovulating, and weight gain.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
