PCOS is a condition where the ovaries produce an abnormal amount of Androgen which further leads to cyst formation in the ovaries. Some of the most common symptoms of PCOS are menstrual irregularity, acne formation, mood swings and obesity. Vitamin D can help in reducing the symptoms of PCOS. "Vitamin D deficiency can make symptoms of PCOS worse. Taking Vitamin D through diet or supplements may ease some PCOS problems such as infertility, weight gain, and anxiety. That in turn, can improve your overall health and further improve your emotional state and energy, which can lead to even more wellness gains," wrote Dietitian Asiya Ali.(Shutterstock)
