Angekuwa na dalili ya Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome malalamiko yake yangekuwa tofauti kabisa, umeshawahi kukutana na mgonjwa wa Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome au theory tu?
Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) - Topic Overview
What is polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS)?
Polycystic ovary syndrome (say "pah-lee-SIS-tik OH-vuh-ree SIN-drohm") is a problem in which a womans hormones are out of balance. It can cause problems with your periods and make it difficult to getpregnant. PCOS may also cause unwanted changes in the way you look. If it is not treated, over time it can lead to serious health problems, such as diabetes andheart disease.
Polycystic ovary syndrome (or PCOS) is common, affecting as many as 1 out of 15 women. Often the symptoms begin in the teen years. Treatment can help control the symptoms and prevent long-term problems.
What are hormones, and what happens in PCOS?
Hormones are chemical messengers that trigger many different processes, including growth and energy production. Often, the job of one hormone is to signal the release of another hormone.
For reasons that are not well understood, in PCOS the hormones get out of balance. One hormone change triggers another, which changes another. For example:
What are the symptoms?
- The sex hormones get out of balance. Normally, the ovaries make a tiny amount of male sex hormones (androgens). In PCOS, they start making slightly more androgens. This may cause you to stop ovulating, get acne, and grow extra facial and body hair.
- The body may have a problem using insulin, called insulin resistance. When the body doesn't use insulin well, blood sugar levels go up. Over time, this increases your chance of getting diabetes.
Symptoms tend to be mild at first. You may have only a few symptoms or a lot of them. The most common symptoms are:
Most women with PCOS grow many small cysts
- Acne.
- Weight gain and trouble losing weight.
- Extra hair on the face and body. Often women get thicker and darker facial hair and more hair on the chest, belly, and back.
- Thinning hair on the scalp.
- Irregular periods. Often women with PCOS have fewer than nine periods a year. Some women have no periods. Others have very heavy bleeding.
- Fertility problems. Many women who have PCOS have trouble getting pregnant (infertility).
- Depression.
on their ovaries. That is why it is called polycystic ovary syndrome. The cysts are not harmful but lead to hormone imbalances.
What causes PCOS?
The symptoms of PCOS are caused by changes in hormone levels. There may be one or more causes for the hormone level changes.
PCOS seems to run in families, so your chance of having it is higher if other women in your family have PCOS, irregular periods, or diabetes. PCOS can be passed down from either your mother's or father's side.
How is PCOS diagnosed?
To diagnose PCOS, the doctor will:
- Ask questions about your past health, symptoms, and menstrual cycles.
- Do a physical exam to look for signs of PCOS, such as extra body hair and high blood pressure. The doctor will also check your height and weight to see if you have a healthy body mass index (BMI).
- Do a number of lab tests to check your blood sugar, insulin, and other hormone levels. Hormone tests can help rule out thyroid or other gland problems that could cause similar symptoms.QKop

Mkuu Kop hiyo nimekujibuAngekuwa na dalili ya Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome malalamiko yake yangekuwa tofauti kabisa, umeshawahi kukutana na mgonjwa wa Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome au theory tu?

Mkuu King'asti
What does multiple follicles in your ovaries mean?
Answer:
It means you are about to possibly release more than mature one egg for fertilization, or it may be a sign of chronic anovulation, such as in polycystic ovarian syndrome or use of hormonal birth control. Discuss the finding with your health care provider for information specific to your situation.
Ma-Daktari wetu wengi wao Kiingereza kinawapiga chenga saa ingine amesoma shule na anajuwa kiasi tu kiingereza ndio lugha ya Ki-Daktari ninashangaa Daktari mzima hajuwi hiyo maana ya multiple follicles? Ahhhh............. Wacha tu tutafika tu inshallah

Dada au Mama, Ovarian follicles ni kitu cha kawaida, ndio zinakuwa na mayai ambayo bado hayajapevuka. Ulienda hospital gani? Cha muhimu ni kwenda hospital yenye mtaalam kabisa wa ultra sound au Radiologist. wapiga ultra sound wengi hawajui wanachofanya na pia huyo daktari ana qualification gani? Kama ni M.D lazima atajua anachofanya.
Si kila mvaa koti jeupe hospitali ni daktari, wengine ni C.O au A.M.O. wakati mwingine uliza, kama ni C.O au A.M.O kula kona utaibiwa daktari ni yule aliye na M.D tu
hata mimi nakuunga mkono...

Mkuu ZeMarcopolo Ni kweli ulivyo jibu huko kwetu hakuna vifaa vingi kuliko huku nje ulaya kuna vifaa vingi lakini Ma-Daktari wenye ujuzi ni wachache. Tofauti na nyumbani kuna kuna Ma-Daktari wanao ujuzi lakini Vifaa vya kufanyia Uchunguzi wa Mgonjwa ndio shida kupatikana Mimi ninafikiri Hapo Tanzania kungelikuwepo na vifaa vya uhakika vya uchuınguzi Wagonjwa wasingelikuwa wanapelekwa Eti India au south Africa kwenda kutibiwa. Waswahili Wamesema Kwenye Miti hakuna Wajenzi.Nchi za Ulaya kuna utaratibu kwamba ultrasound za gynecology zinafanywa na gynecologist na yeye mwenyewe ndiye anayemueleza mgonjwa ameona nini na kinamaanisha nini.
Kwa kwetu Tanzania kwa vile specialists ni wachache basi ni vema kukawa na utaratibu yule aliyepiga ultrasound awe anawajibika kumfafanulia mgonjwa majibu aliyoona.
Katika case hii kama sonographer ameziita follicles basi hazina tatizo. Kwa sababu hizo wanawake wote walio kwenye umri wa kuzaa wanatakiwa kuwa nazo. Kukishakuwa na tatizo sonographer anawajibika kuelezea zaidi characteristics za hilo tatizo kama vile ukubwa, contents zake (echogenity), blood supply, uhusiano wako na organs zingine etc.
Hata hivyo kwa sababu hili tatizo lina historia yake ambayo kaka yangu MziziMkavu anaijua na sisi wengine hatuijui, basi ushauri wake unakuwa na thamani ya ziada kutokana na kuwa na taarifa zaidi (information is power)...

alienifanyia utra sound alisema haoni tatizo nipeleke majibu kwa daktariNchi za Ulaya kuna utaratibu kwamba ultrasound za gynecology zinafanywa na gynecologist na yeye mwenyewe ndiye anayemueleza mgonjwa ameona nini na kinamaanisha nini.

Usiogope mkuu wote majibu yao nayasoma alafu nayatafakari hakuna hata mmoja ambaye ananitakia baya so wote majibu yao ntayafanyia kaziKwa mtazamo wngu hapa Madam G ndo kapotezwa kabisaaa....kwa sababu wenye ujuzi wenyewe wanagongana sasa mgonjwa si ndo hofu inazidi!
