Holistic PCOS Treatment: What is Causing YOUR PCOS?
Insulin Resistance PCOS:
There are a few different types of PCOS, and healing PCOS starts with understanding what the underlying cause of YOUR specific PCOS is. Your PCOS may have a different underlying cause than someone else with PCOS, even if you both share similar symptoms. A very common type of PCOS I see if Insulin Resistance PCOS.
The most common symptoms that clue us in to this type of PCOS are:
✔️ weight gain or difficulty losing weight
✔️ high androgen symptoms: acne, thinning hair on the head, hair growth in unwanted areas like face or belly
✔️ tendency toward hypoglycemia: eg. will get shaky, hangry, irritable, brain fog, faint if going more than 3 hours without eating
✔️ sensitive to carbohydrates and starches
✔️ sometimes a family history of type 2 diabetes or metabolic issues, high cholesterol, etc. Step 1 of any PCOS program is to figure out what type of PCOS you have. You can have more than one contributing factor as well. Then creating a comprehensive plan to address all of the factors to actually HEAL your PCOS.
Each program in our PCOS clinic is designed specifically for the unique presentation and needs of the person. I, myself struggled with PCOS for over a decade before figuring out how to address the underlying imbalance. Over the last 12 years, my patients and myself included have been a testament to how effective natural treatments can be when applied correctly. Let me help you clear acne, lose weight, re-gain energy, re-establish your menstrual cycles, and start ovulating again.
