Depresion in PCO women -Why and How??

 

What is the most notorious syndrome in women –which is difficult to 1) pickup early, 2) women fail to change their lifestyle which causes air-strike at dining table(fat carbohydrate restriction) and  3) eats away much time from  TV serial !! This time is diverted to  going to walk in  lanes /Roof/Gyms for regular physical exercise .

There is hardly anytime left to a middle aged PCO woman to look after family members, and supervising kitchen jobs ,not to speak of finding time for “chat with old boyfriends who were close to your heart at College life.” Virtually there  is no time!!!! Additionally selection of Food items from market, frequently going to Medicine shop for purchasing drugs for lowering cholesterol, visiting Diagnostic centers for 4 monthly Lab tests and visiting Gynaecologits, Dieticians, Diabetic doctor, Hematologist and so mammy cheque ups. Depression may set in!!!!! Family members support can go a long way and that is exactly the need of the hour because out of 135 crores Indian population, my presumption that 15-20 crores Indian girls and women are suffering from PCO be it controlled or uncontrolled,

It is   a notoriously   heterogeneous   syndrome which runs within families. It has  a high degree of heritability and   is currently  looked upon as being  a complex   genetic  disorder.

Several hundreds   of candidate   genes have been studied however the    majority of these genetic   variants have not   been replicated in sufficiently large case control studies .
