While having PCOS may increase cancer risk, there are several strategies to mitigate this risk:
Maintaining a healthy weight through diet and exercise can help manage insulin resistance and reduce cancer risk. Regular use of oral contraceptives can help regulate menstrual cycles and reduce the risk of endometrial hyperplasia. Metformin, a medication often prescribed for insulin resistance, may also help in reducing cancer risk. Regular screenings and consultations with healthcare providers can help in early detection and management.
