Does anyone know how to get rid of pcos (polycystic ovary syndrome)? |
Does anyone know how to get rid of pcos (polycystic ovary syndrome)? Unfortunately there isn't a cure as such. My doctor recommended that I go on the pill, but I wasn't keen... basically it just masks the problem, so as soon as you come off, you'll be back to square one. When I suggested this problem to her, she said it's better just to treat the symptom rather than the cause... There are also hormone treatments available, but I haven't really looked into those. I have a really good book that gave me the idea to try taking vitamins and herbs. I was really sceptical about the effect it would have, but after a couple of months I really noticed the difference in my periods and general feeling of well-being. If you don't already eat healthily and get plenty of exercise, now is the time to start! If you're interested, the book is http://www.amazon.co.uk/nutritional-heal... Sorry, But there is no cure. I am 24 and have it also. Doctors normally treat it with hormones and other meds. Your best bet is to make an appointment with your Gyn.The longer you wait the more damage to your system it can do. by looseing weight. this requires takeing bithcontrol, being on a diet,and working out alot. also most people with PCOS have insulin resistence, for this insulin sensitezers are prescribed, like glucophage ( usually used for diebeties). ill list a web site with info on PCOS http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/pcos... Being over weight is usually the cuase of pcos. that doesnt mean you are obese just different body shapes can handle a certian amount of body fat.. first try to loose around 20 pounds.. that will help alot.. also fertility drugs such as clomid can help with the pain and decrease cyst size. It cant be cured but it can be treated by avoiding certain foods and taking medicine. |
