Description
People with this variation have XX chromosomes and are generally born with a vulva and vagina, a uterus, and ovaries. Later in life, their ovaries often produce higher-than-typical levels of androgens like testosterone. Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) can also result in the development of characteristics such as facial and body hair, and it can interfere with the process of ovulation. This in turn can cause irregular periods or no periods, and people with PCOS may struggle to become pregnant. Some people with PCOS have small cysts (fluid-filled sacs) on their ovaries, but some do not. Signs of PCOS generally will not show up until a person starts menstruating, or later in life.
