can surgery cure PCOS?


heatherjames - April 19th, 2011 12:30 PM

Yes but. . . doctors will not normally recommend surgery immediately if there are alternatives. It is a huge risk because it can damage the ovary. Usually a woman suffering from Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is given medications to counter the condition. If these don't go well, together with other alternatives, then surgery is the last recourse.

Typically, 2 types of surgical interventions are used for treatment of PCOS: (1) ovarian wedge resection, and;
(2) laparoscopic ovarian drilling.
