PCOS Consultation: What to Expect?

Comprehensive PCOS diagnosis and assessment

Your journey begins with a comprehensive assessment to discuss your current symptoms, medical history, and family risk factors. We take a deep dive into your period history and pregnancy goals to build a complete picture of your health. This visit may also result in orders for bloodwork or an ultrasound to confirm a diagnosis.

Together, we'll create a personalized care plan to manage your specific symptoms. You and your provider will determine the best path for you based on your symptoms, overall health, and personal goals. We’ll explore all of your options, including lifestyle changes, supplements, and medication.

Potential treatment plans for PCOS

There is no cure for PCOS but there are many options to manage your symptoms. Your provider will determine the best treatment for you based on your symptoms, medical history, and overall health, as well as your desire to conceive. Treatment options may include medication, lifestyle changes, or a combination of both.

Spironolactone

This medication suppresses androgens which can improve the symptoms of unwanted hair growth and acne.

Metformin

This diabetes drug is believed to work by improving insulin sensitivity, which is commonly associated with PCOS. By lowering your insulin level, metformin allows many women to cycle more normally.

Hormonal birth control

For those who do not want to become pregnant, treating PCOS often involves taking hormonal birth control to manage the symptoms of PCOS, like painful periods, acne, and excess body hair. The pill, the patch, and the ring work by preventing ovulation which reduces the number of cysts on the ovary.

Magnesium

Is thought to improve insulin sensitivity, lower blood pressure and decrease inflammation.

Inositol

Inositol may help reduce blood triglyceride levels, improve insulin function, lower blood pressure and promote ovulation in women with PCOS.

Vitamin D

Vitamin D promotes insulin sensitivity in addition to helping with calcium absorption.

Zinc

Zinc may improve insulin resistance, decrease cramping with periods, unwanted hair growth and acne.

DIM (Diindolylmethane)

This is a phytonutrient derived from vegetables that blocks androgen receptors which can help with acne and unwanted hair growth.

Spearmint Tea

This has significant anti-androgen effects and contains compounds called polyphenols that have anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and antibacterial properties.

Peony & Licorice

The peony and licorice (Shao Yao Gan Cao Tang) combination has undergone clinical trials in which it was found to reduce testosterone and improve cycle regularity. Caution with high blood pressure as licorice may raise blood pressure.

Increase Fiber Intake

Aim to get at least 25 grams of fiber per day.

Increase Healthy Fats

Healthy fats can help sustain your energy and support healthy cholesterol levels.

Exercise

Try more restorative forms of exercise rather than high intensity.
