What is PCOS?
PCOS stands for polycystic ovary syndrome. Consider your ovaries as bunches of seeded grapes on a much smaller scale. The seed in the centre of the grape is an immature egg cell and the flesh of the grape is what we call the fluid-filled follicle. They’re like little sacs that contain the immature eggs. PCOS is when some of these sacs are unable to release an egg, which means that ovulation does not take place.
