This condition is called insulin resistance can cause excess insulin and sugar accumulation in the system.<\/p>\n<p class=\"custom-content\">High insulin levels are responsible for the higher production of male hormones androgen, which are responsible for weight gain. Additionally, women with PCOS have pre-existing high levels of androgen, which can worsen weight control.<\/p>\n<h3><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-9721 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/conquerpcos.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/asian-woman-work-out-weight-training-and-listen-music-682683596-5a1ef59347c26600373a7180.jpg\" alt=\"lean pcos treatment\" width=\"500\" height=\"350\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.gynaecworld.com\/pcos\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/asian-woman-work-out-weight-training-and-listen-music-682683596-5a1ef59347c26600373a7180.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.gynaecworld.com\/pcos\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/asian-woman-work-out-weight-training-and-listen-music-682683596-5a1ef59347c26600373a7180-300x210.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.gynaecworld.com\/pcos\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/asian-woman-work-out-weight-training-and-listen-music-682683596-5a1ef59347c26600373a7180-480x336.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/h3>\n<h3>Does Being Overweight Cause PCOS or Does PCOS Result in Obesity?<\/h3>\n<p class=\"custom-content\">Either way is possible, and the link between obesity and polycystic ovary syndrome is quite complicated. Signs and symptoms of polycystic ovary syndrome for some females begin soon after they start having periods. Women with PCOS produce too much insulin, or the insulin they produce does not work as it should. The inability of insulin to function normally is one reason why women with PCOS tend to gain weight or have a hard time losing weight. For others, PCOS develops later on, following substantial weight gain. What is clear is that women affected by obesity have a higher risk for PCOS, and women with PCOS have a higher risk of obesity, which is why obesity and polycystic ovary syndrome is considered as the most common combination.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-9722 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/conquerpcos.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/woman-stretching-on-ground-3076509-scaled-min-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"obesity and polycystic ovary syndrome\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.gynaecworld.com\/pcos\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/woman-stretching-on-ground-3076509-scaled-min-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.gynaecworld.com\/pcos\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/woman-stretching-on-ground-3076509-scaled-min-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.gynaecworld.com\/pcos\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/woman-stretching-on-ground-3076509-scaled-min-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.gynaecworld.com\/pcos\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/woman-stretching-on-ground-3076509-scaled-min-672x448.jpg 672w, https:\/\/www.gynaecworld.com\/pcos\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/woman-stretching-on-ground-3076509-scaled-min-1038x692.jpg 1038w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_widget_sidebar sidebar_id=&#8221;sidebar-1&#8243; el_class=&#8221;over-sidebar&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row padding_top=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_column][rev_slider_vc alias=&#8221;overview-nutrition-and-pcos&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row padding_top=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_column width=&#8221;3\/4&#8243; el_class=&#8221;overview-main-big-col&#8221;][vc_column_text el_class=&#8221;symp-main-content higher-risk-content&#8221;] What is Lean polycystic ovarian syndrome?
