Can PCOS Cause Scoliosis?

Hi, I was wondering if there could be a link between PCOS and Scoliosis? Seeing as PCOS messes with all the hormone levels, I thought that it could possibly be a cause of Scoliosis too?? Or am I clutching at straws?
I'm 33, 5'7", about 14 stone and was diagnosed with Scoliosis at age 14 and PCOS at age 31 (approx)

Hi wel come to health care magic.
I have gone through your question.
As far as pcod and scoliosis is concern both have not any relations.
Scoliosis is spinal problem and pcod ( polycystic ovarian disease) is ovarian problem.
Pcod cause problem in conceiving. As follicles are small dont get increase in size, androgen level increased, insulin resistance develops.
So conault gynecologist for pcod and orthopedic for scoliosis.
Take care.
