What Is PCOS Anyway?

Polycystic ovary syndrome, also known as PCOS, is the most common hormonal disorder in women of reproductive age. PCOS causes a number of frustrating, and demoralizing symptoms that significantly impacts quality of life. Unfortunately, many people with PCOS are unaware of their diagnosis, and their lifestyle choices are wrongly blamed for their symptoms. According to recent surveys, women with PCOS noted it takes an average of 2 years and 3 doctors to receive a proper diagnosis of PCOS. Problematically, PCOS looks very different in each person, making it both difficult to diagnose, as well as easy to overdiagnose. To learn more about this diagnosis issue in PCOS, and to ensure you’ve received a proper diagnosis, check out our blog here. 

Common symptoms of PCOS we often treat include: 

• Irregular or absent periods

• Difficulty getting pregnant and infertility

• Excessive hair growth on the body

• Thinning and hair loss on the head

• Weight gain despite exercise and dieting

• Oily skin and acne

• Diabetes 

• Depression and anxiety

• Increased sensitivity to stress

When left untreated, not only do the symptoms leave you feeling completely robbed of your self-esteem, but you also become at risk for a number of long-term complications. This includes things like diabetes, cardiovascular disease, reproductive cancers, fatty liver disease, and infertility.

Perfect PCOS: Our 5 Step Program

It’s time to reclaim your hormones and feel great in your body again! This is exactly why we created the Perfect PCOS Program. This 5-step program will help you reduce your symptoms, prevent long-term risks, and take the guesswork out of your PCOS, so you can get back to feeling like yourself!

our 5-step program

1. Identify Barriers  - We complete extremely comprehensive intakes and lab testing to understand your general health status, your hormone status, your unique PCOS factors and type, and identify where things are going wrong. We also send you home to complete symptom monitoring so we can start to pick up on your unique symptom patterns.

2. Support Foundations – This is where your treatment begins. We ensure the foundations of health are in place so your symptoms resolve faster and we’re maintaining these results long-term. This includes correcting things like chronic inflammation, chronic stress, insulin resistance, hormone imbalances, digestive function, and environmental exposures. Often just supporting these and putting them into place is all you need! We teach you how to implement foundational supports in a balanced way so you never feel restricted.

3. Customized + Targeted Supplementation – Once we receive all of your lab results and symptom diary we start targeting treatment specifically to you. This often takes the form of highly concentrated supplementation and is completely based on your unique physiology and barriers. Depending on your goals, bioidentical hormones may be recommended.

4. Optimize the Gut – Once foundations are in place, and we’ve removed underlying barriers through targeted supplementation, we look at further optimizing the gut. The gut is the foundation of lasting health in the body and has far-reaching impacts on PCOS symptoms and development. Optimizing this system is a must in order to maintain long-term results.

5. Maintenance – Once your initial concerns have been addressed, we create a new plan for you to carry forward to help sustain your results and prevent long-term risks such as diabetes that often emerge in PCOS. Our goal at this point is that you’ve become such an expert in understanding your own body that you only need us for maintenance support quarterly or bi-annually!
