Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) Treatment

PCOS treatment often involves the use of birth control pills in conventional medicine, however we believe in getting to the root of the problem rather than treating symptoms. Empowering your health through diet, stress reduction, herbal medicine and lifestyle changes can be tremendously helpful even when combined with conventional medicine, what we call an integrative approach. Disease or illness in the body affects the various systems and organs; your reproductive system does not function independently from the rest of your body, so overall wellness is vital to fertility.

Some of the symptoms that may indicate polycystic ovarian syndrome include:

  • Infertility
  • Hair loss on the head (male pattern baldness)
  • Acne
  • Irregular menstrual cycle or absent periods
  • Excess growth of hair on the face
  • Weight gain
