Also known as Stein-Leventhal Syndrome, the polycystic ovarian syndrome is a hormonal deficiency that causes a lot of women to have different symptoms.It is an endocrine disorder affecting more or less 5% of women. It happens to all reaces and nationalities, and PCOS syndrome is the most leading cause of infertility and widespread hormonal disorder for women in childbearing age.

The symptoms of polycystic ovarian syndrome are obesity, anovulation which eventually will lead to irregular menstruation, acne, and excessive amounts or effects of androgenic or masculinizing hormones. The symptoms and severity of the syndrome vary from woman to woman. PCOS syndrome causes are quite unknown except for obesity, diabetes, and insulin resistance associated with PCOS syndrome.

Other symptoms are weight gain, skin discoloration, high cholesterol levels, high blood pressure, unsual hair growth and distribution and even dandruff. Many of these symptoms can be absent to those women who have PCOS but they will always have irregularities in their menstruation or don’t have it at all.Women who don’t experience regular ovulation don’t produce egg cells each month and that often leads to irregular menstruation.

Although there’s no established fact of PCOS, women who suffer from it either have a mother or sister who has PCOS but still it’s not considered hereditary.More often, women with PCOS have small cysts found in their ovaries, that’s why it is called polycystic ovarian syndrome.There are comparable number of cysts that grow in women who have not suffered from PCOS. Thus, these cysts themselves would not be the cause of this predicament.Usually the blood sugar control system in women breaks down for those women sufering from PCOS; hence most researchers believe that these are caused by PCOS development. The ovaries of women who suffer from PCOS are known to produce an excess of male hormones called androgen.Too much production of male hormones may be a result of irregular insulin production.

HIGH BLOOD SUGAR IS AN INDICATION OF A MORE SERIOUS PROBLEM

POPULAR UNDERSTANDING:

Diabetics do not make enough insulin or the body does not use all the insulin it produces. Insulin is a hormone that assists the production of glucose (sugar) to be absorbed into cells and then converted to energy. The pancreas secretes enzymes that assist carbohydrate, protein, and fat metabolism. When the pancreas is dysfunctional then digestive enzymes are not provided for digestion. The condition imbalances the liver, gall bladder, spleen and all digestive related organs. During uncontrolled diabetes, glucose and fats stay in the circulatory system, where in time, the principal digestive organs become damaged and finally diseased.

DIABETIC STATISTICS:

• Seventeen million Americans are walking around with diabetes, and 200,000 people will die this year due to related complications. Diabetes sets up conditions for heart disease, stroke, blindness, kidney failure, leg and foot amputations, pregnancy complications, and deaths related to flu and pneumonia. At risk, are the 5.9 million Americans who are unaware that they have the condition.
• We spend $100 Billion a year on diabetes, directly and indirectly. In 1997, the normal health care outlay for someone with diabetes was ,071, contrasted with ,699 for an individual without diabetes.
• U.S. adults with diabetes increased 49% from 1990 to 2000. Increases are expected in the next decade and beyond.
• Diabetes is an epidemic. In 1990, there were only 4 U.S. states determined to be at epidemic levels. In 1995, that number increased to 11. In 2000, there were only 6 states that were not at epidemic levels.

What happened to the other 44 states in 10 years? What is occuring in our country where a disease can over run us. Secretly, we are being plague by a force superior to any terrorist group. Is there anyone seeing what is truely happening? That’s more than 15 million plus people caught in the grips of this top level threat to our country. Where’s the equal level response by our government and medical establishment?

UNDERLYING CAUSATION

While insulin production and all the relevant symptoms in the body is a concern, to rest here and just declare the pancreas is the source of the ailment is not enough. Its a primary component but not the complete. Some other factors:

Diet & Elimination: While diet plays another primary role in the story, reducing protein, carbs and sugar, soundly, helps but there is more to the setting that needs to be acknowledged. The quality of our food is less nutritious. Our U.S. sources have depleted the soil quality. Rather than re-establishing our soil with our elimination similar to other long life zones, the U.S. drains its precious elimination down the sewage lines to the oceans. As a result we have to look to natural sources of foods and diabetic herbs.

Life stressors: Stress wears down the life force. Are we experiencing more strain than our parents? Hard to say. They survived World War II whereas we have been subjected to escalating undeclared wars, increasing amusement channels, artificially constructed anti-diseases,chemicals, taxes, etc. If, we try to live up to expectations and not restore ourselves (body, mind, spirit) then our adrenals-kidneys will become depleted which is the home of our vital energy production. The result is that all of our organs do not have the energy to sustain. Subsequently, body organs do not do their jobs and need to be restored not individually but systemically before further non-understood ailments surface.    

Character: Our ability to interpret, positively or negatively, may have a lot to say about our ability to manage personal conflict. If we see things positively then our perceptions and response is that we are challenged and figure out solutions. When negative, then opportunities will be missed because we are strapped by fear. That high level of anxiety speeds up aging, perpetuates fear and opens the door to an unprotected immunity. We need to learn or relearn how find courage during stressful times. As we believe, we perceive, so shall our life follow.
