Dr Eloise Elphinstone, Menopause Doctor
of women of reproductive age experience PCOS
Women with PCOS typically experience menopause two years later than women without PCOS. PCOS does not cause perimenopause, but the mirroring of symptoms can make it more difficult to diagnose PCOS once perimenopause begins.
In addition to treatment options, there are many techniques that help with managing both PCOS and menopause symptoms. Examples include managing your weight and improving your sleep.
Our PCOS specialist menopause doctors can help build a personalised treatment plan for you.
