Polycystic Ovary Syndrome

PCOS Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is a common female "hormone disorder" and reproductive endocrinologists have continually been at the forefront of research and successful management of this often frustrating condition. As new understandings have evolved, more effective treatments have followed. Dr. Ripps is a community and national leader in management of polycystic ovary syndrome, its excessive hair growth, stubborn weight gain, and associated infertility.

Early treatment is important as PCOS can progress, leading to other conditions such as diabetes, hypertension, high cholesterol and heart disease.  Recently developed natural and medical therapies are consistently effective these risks for most women.  When conception is the primary desire, fertility therapies and outpatient surgery can successfully aid in re-establishing a woman’s ovulation.

In this practice, pregnancy and long-term relief from these symptoms are realistic goals for women with PCOS, including restoration of normal hormones, reducing and preventing weight gain, removing unwanted hair, and preventing additional hair growth.
