PCOS and Joint Pain

Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) affects hormones, often leading to increased inflammation and changes in weight. These two factors combined can put added stress on the knees, increasing discomfort and stiffness.

Women with PCOS may also experience fatigue or find it harder to stay active, which can weaken the muscles that support the knees over time. Balancing hormones and incorporating joint-friendly movement are key to managing both conditions effectively.

Understanding the connection between PCOS and joint pain can empower you to take steps that protect your knees.

At Elev8 Movement, we recognize these unique challenges. Our approach combines targeted exercises to strengthen the muscles supporting your knees with guidance that helps manage overall joint health.
