PCOS will not go away with a hysterectomy as removing the uterus and the ovaries will not ease the symptoms because PCOS is a condition that is related to hormone imbalances and metabolism problems.
The treatments for PCOS include birth control pills to regularize your periods, metformin to prevent diabetes, statins to control high cholesterol, hormones to increase fertility and procedures that can remove excess hair.
A woman who has PCOS does have a big or bloated stomach as bloating is the most common symptom of women with PCOS.
Women that have PCOS tend to have higher fat deposits in their abdominal area which is independent of their body mass index.
What this means is the women with lean bodies or of normal weight can get a PCOS belly too.
It is also believed that elevated male hormones in women are what causes PCOS belly.
Having a PCOS belly can result in a protruding or "apple-shaped" appearance.
The PCOS belly often feels firm and solid to the touch due to increased visceral fat surrounding the internal organs.
This differs from regular belly fat, which is more evenly distributed and soft.
You can help to get rid of a PCOS belly by doing the following.
Reduce your carb intake.
Get plenty of fiber.
Eat enough protein.
Eat healthy fats.
Eat fermented foods.
Practice mindful eating.
Limit processed foods and added sugars.
Reduce inflammation.
