PCOS stands for Polycystic ovary syndrome. PCOS is hormonal and metabolic disbalance that is a common and treatable cause of infertility.
According to different sources, PCOS affects 5% to 10% of women of reproductive age in the US. The most common symptoms of PCOS are irregular periods, excess facial and body hair, acne, weight gain and difficulty losing weight and hair loss. Women with PCOS often have an elevated level of AMH (>5 ng/mL) and a higher number of follicles in the ovaries (>12 per ovary).
It is common that PCOS patients are not able to conceive on their own and need some form of fertility treatment and/or lifestyle changes. While women with PCOS don’t always need to go through IVF to achieve pregnancy, they may consider egg freezing for the same reason as other patients willing to preserve their reproductive ability and save the quality of their eggs at a younger age.
It worth noting, that egg freezing could be very cost efficient for these patients as they usually have more eggs to be retrieved with less stimulation.
