Why Is Oral Health Vital in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS)?
Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) are at a higher risk of developing insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes, which can affect oral health. Elevated glucose levels can promote bacterial growth, leading to an increased risk of dental caries and gum disease. Regular dental check-ups and good oral hygiene are crucial for managing the oral health of women with PCOS.
