What Is PCOS?
Common Symptoms of PCOS
When Should You See a PCOS Specialist?
PCOS Diagnosis
Diagnosing PCOS requires a comprehensive assessment of your symptoms, menstrual cycle, hormone levels, and overall health. At Gynaecology Clinic London, your consultation will include a detailed discussion about your symptoms, reproductive health, medical history, lifestyle, and any fertility concerns, helping us build a complete picture of your health and wellbeing.
Depending on your symptoms and clinical findings, investigations may include blood tests to assess hormone levels, ultrasound scanning of the ovaries, and other investigations where appropriate. Because PCOS can present differently from one woman to another, diagnosis is based on a combination of clinical findings rather than a single test. Our aim is to provide an accurate diagnosis, identify any associated health concerns, and develop a personalised treatment plan tailored to your individual needs and long-term health goals.
PCOS Treatment Options
Lifestyle and Weight Management
For many women, lifestyle changes can play an important role in managing PCOS symptoms and supporting long-term health. Improvements in diet, physical activity, and weight management may help regulate menstrual cycles, improve ovulation, and support hormonal balance.
Hormonal Treatments
Hormonal treatments may help regulate periods, improve hormonal symptoms, and reduce the risk of complications associated with infrequent or absent menstrual cycles. Treatment recommendations will be tailored to your individual symptoms and health goals.
Managing Excess Hair Growth and Acne
A range of treatment options are available to help manage unwanted facial or body hair growth, acne, and other symptoms associated with hormonal imbalance, helping improve both physical symptoms and confidence.
Fertility Support
For women who are trying to conceive, treatment may focus on improving ovulation and supporting fertility. Our specialists provide personalised guidance based on your reproductive goals and individual circumstances.
Insulin Resistance and Metabolic Health
Many women with PCOS experience insulin resistance, which can contribute to weight gain and increase the risk of future health complications. Assessment and management of metabolic health can form an important part of long-term PCOS care.
Long-Term Health Monitoring
PCOS can be associated with an increased risk of certain long-term health conditions, including type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Ongoing monitoring and proactive management can help support your long-term health and overall wellbeing.

Frequently Asked Questions
When should I see a specialist about possible PCOS?
You should consider specialist assessment if you are experiencing irregular periods, fertility difficulties, unwanted hair growth, acne, unexplained weight gain, or other symptoms that may suggest PCOS. Early diagnosis can help improve symptom control, support reproductive health, and reduce the risk of long-term health complications.
Can PCOS affect fertility?
Yes. PCOS is one of the most common causes of ovulation-related fertility difficulties. However, many women with PCOS successfully conceive naturally or with appropriate treatment and support. Specialist assessment can help identify any fertility concerns and guide the most appropriate treatment options.
Can I have PCOS if I still have periods?
Yes. Some women with PCOS continue to have periods, although their menstrual cycles may still be affected by hormonal imbalance or irregular ovulation. This is why a thorough assessment is important if you are experiencing symptoms that may suggest PCOS.
How is PCOS diagnosed?
PCOS is diagnosed through a combination of symptom assessment, medical history, hormone testing, ultrasound findings, and clinical evaluation. Because PCOS can affect women in different ways, diagnosis is based on a combination of findings rather than a single test.
What treatments are available for PCOS?
Treatment depends on your symptoms, lifestyle, fertility goals, and overall health. Options may include lifestyle modifications, hormonal treatments, fertility support, management of acne or unwanted hair growth, and long-term health monitoring.
Can PCOS cause weight gain?
Yes. Many women with PCOS find it easier to gain weight and more difficult to lose weight due to hormonal and metabolic factors associated with the condition. Appropriate management can often help improve symptom control and support healthy weight management.
Can PCOS increase long-term health risks?
PCOS can be associated with an increased risk of insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes, high cholesterol, and cardiovascular disease. Early diagnosis and ongoing management can help support long-term health and wellbeing.
Do I need a GP referral to see a PCOS specialist?
No. Many women choose to self-refer for private PCOS assessment and treatment at Gynaecology Clinic London. Referrals from GPs and other healthcare professionals are also welcome.
How quickly can I be seen for PCOS assessment?
We provide fast access to private consultations, investigations, and specialist assessment, helping patients obtain answers and begin treatment without unnecessary delays.
