PCOS treatment in Baku

Gynaecologist-endocrinologist assessment, hormone and metabolic tests and a long-term plan for PCOS in Baku clinics.

Polycystic ovary syndrome is a common hormonal condition that can cause irregular or absent periods, acne, excess hair growth, weight gain and difficulty conceiving. It often goes together with insulin resistance. PCOS treatment in Baku starts with a gynaecologist-endocrinologist who reviews your history and arranges a pelvic ultrasound and hormone tests, because the diagnosis is made from several signs together and other causes need to be excluded.

PCOS is a long-term condition, so the aim of a visit is a clear diagnosis and a personal plan that you continue at home. Depending on your symptoms and whether you are planning a pregnancy, this may include a metabolic check, lifestyle and weight support, medicines chosen by the doctor or a referral to a reproductive specialist. We review your tests in advance and send a written estimate before you travel.

Treatment options in Azerbaijan

01

Assessment by a gynaecologist-endocrinologist

The doctor examines you, arranges a pelvic ultrasound and hormone tests timed to your cycle and checks for conditions that can look similar, such as thyroid disorders or raised prolactin. Results you bring from home are taken into account.

Gynaecology
02

Metabolic check

Because PCOS is often linked with insulin resistance, the doctor may check blood sugar, insulin and cholesterol. If changes are found, an endocrinologist can advise on how to manage them.

Diabetes check-up
03

Lifestyle and weight support

For many women, changes in diet, physical activity and sleep are a central part of the plan, and even modest weight loss may help the cycle become more regular. Medicines, which may include hormonal or metabolic options, are chosen by the gynaecologist according to your symptoms.

Obesity
04

Planning a pregnancy

When you are planning a pregnancy, the gynaecologist may refer you to a reproductive specialist, who discusses ovulation induction and, if needed, other options such as IVF.

Where treatment takes place

Who it may suit

  • Women with irregular or absent periods who suspect PCOS
  • Those with acne, excess hair growth or weight gain linked to hormonal changes
  • Patients with a PCOS diagnosis who want a second opinion and a clear long-term plan
  • Women with PCOS who are planning a pregnancy
  • Women who would like hormone, ultrasound and metabolic tests completed in one visit

When the trip should wait

  • During pregnancy, any pain, bleeding or other complication needs care from the doctor who looks after your pregnancy at home
  • Sudden severe abdominal pain needs emergency care at home rather than a planned trip

The final decision is always made by the doctor after reviewing your documents.

Frequently asked questions

How is PCOS diagnosed?

The diagnosis is based on a combination of signs, such as irregular ovulation, signs of raised male hormones in the blood or on the skin and a typical picture of the ovaries on ultrasound. Conditions with similar symptoms need to be excluded first. Many small follicles on ultrasound alone do not mean that you have PCOS.

Can PCOS be cured?

PCOS is a long-term condition, and treatment aims to control symptoms and lower health risks rather than remove the condition itself. Symptoms can often be eased with lifestyle measures and medicines chosen by the doctor. The plan usually continues for years and is adjusted by your doctor at home.

Why see a gynaecologist-endocrinologist in Baku?

A gynaecologist-endocrinologist looks at the hormonal, metabolic and reproductive sides of PCOS together. During one visit you can have the examination, ultrasound and blood tests and leave with a written plan. Many doctors in Azerbaijan speak Russian, and an interpreter can join if needed.

Can I get pregnant with PCOS?

PCOS often affects ovulation, and the chances of pregnancy depend on many individual factors. When you are planning a pregnancy, the gynaecologist assesses ovulation, metabolic health and the tests of both partners and may refer you to a reproductive specialist. The outlook is discussed after the tests. An online consultation with a doctor can also be booked before travelling.

How long should I stay in Baku, and what does it cost?

An assessment with ultrasound and blood tests usually takes 2 to 4 days, because some hormone tests are taken on particular days of the cycle and results need time. The doctor confirms the timing. The cost depends on the tests needed and your accommodation, and after reviewing your documents we send a written estimate before booking.
