PCOS. Poly Cystic Ovarian Syndrome. A very common condition that causes infertility in women of all backgrounds, ages and races.
The cause of this disorder is high levels of testosterone that inhibit ovulation. Women who suffer from PCOS tend to have irregular periods which makes it hard for them to predict the best time to conceive.

Many times, high stress is at the root of PCOS as is poor diets and lack of exercise and a healthy lifestyle.
Changing your diet can do a world of good to help regulate your hormones. Most PCOS sufferers wind up getting treated with hormone therapy via their ob/gyn in order to stabilize their hormones so they can begin ovulating and having normal menstrual cycles.
