Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is a complex hormonal condition that affects millions of women, often leading to symptoms like irregular periods, weight gain, acne, hair loss, and fertility challenges. Functional medicine takes a root-cause approach to PCOS, addressing the underlying imbalances such as insulin resistance, inflammation, gut dysbiosis, and hormonal dysregulation. By focusing on personalized nutrition, stress management, lifestyle modifications, and targeted supplementation, we empower women to restore hormonal harmony and improve overall health. This holistic approach not only alleviates symptoms but also supports long-term well-being and vitality for those navigating PCOS.
A whole-food, anti-inflammatory diet focused on balanced macronutrients (protein, fats, and carbohydrates) to regulate hormones and support insulin sensitivity.
Recommendations include life coaching and therapy, limbic retraining, and adrenal fatigue support.
Focusing on gut healing because of the strong connection between gut health and hormone balance.
Using a low-glycemic diet, medications (such as GLP-1 and metformin), and supplements improve insulin sensitivity.
Regular physical activity, prioritizing strength training, to improve insulin sensitivity, balance hormones, and support weight management.
Such as: Inositol, Indole 3 Carbinol/DIM, Vitamin B, Vitamin D, Omega-3 Fatty Acids, Magnesium, Zinc, and Berberine.
In some cases, natural hormones may be used to help balance menstrual cycles and regulate estrogen/progesterone levels.
Supporting liver function to help process and remove excess hormones like estrogen and androgens that may exacerbate PCOS symptoms.
Aiming for a healthy weight to reduce insulin resistance and hormone imbalances can improve symptoms like irregular periods and infertility.
