    Dear ILs,
    I am 28 yrs old and married recently. I have PCOS for more than 14 yrs and i have irregular periods. I used homeopathy and allopathy before my marriage and nothing worked out. I am overweight too. I have some doubt regarding pregancy. When mother has PCOS, will it effect child? I mean will baby get inherited from mothers harmonal imbalance? I would like to get clarification before i get pregancy. Currently i am using naturopathy and its for pcos.If pcos doesnt effect baby's health, then i can try for pregnancy. Pls pour your thoughts..

    Not as such. But falling pregnant itself may be a challenge. Have you checked for TSH, diabetes and other hormones?

    Hi Divshri!

    When the mother has pcos there is higher chance of the daughter getting pcos and probably at a younger age than the mother herself.

    My mother has pcos and I too have it. She was diagnosed in her late thirties while I was almost 9 when I was diagnosed.

    Having said that there is no guarantee that the child will 100 percent inherit this disorder.
    Most importantly in present times we have alot of access to help and support compared to our days.
    You can surely manage the situation.

    Eat healthy throughout your pregnancy and imbibe good eating habits in your child.

    Alot of girls out there have pcos and the numbers are increasing, if all of us start worrying over motherhood, world population will decrease drastically.....:) So don't worry and just be positive.

    Hi divshri
    Pcos can be treated in many ways
    Loosing extra weight
    Medication
    Checking for other medical disorders like thyroid ,hormonal imbalance etc
    Amd as fas as i know its not heriditary for eg.
    If your daughter is fit follows balanced diet and regimen no way she'll be diagnosed witj pcod that is for sure
