PCOS
Would you be surprised to learn that approximately 5-6 million women in the United States suffer from the endocrine and metabolic disorder known as Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS)?
This physically and emotionally distressing condition affects women (or AFAB) of reproductive age. It is often under-diagnosed, and awareness of the condition is lacking. Patients who do receive a PCOS diagnosis are often told to eat less and get more exercise. However, in our practice, we often see PCOS patients who are undereating or undernourished and are battling with stress and high toxicity, which drive a wide range of symptoms.
- Irregular or absent periods
- Acne
- Mood changes
- Skin tags (acanthosis nigricans)
- Patches on skin
- Hair loss (alopecia)
- Infertility
- Resistant weight loss
- Excess hair growth on the face and body (hirsutism)
The presence or extent of these symptoms varies between individuals. PCOS is the leading cause of infertility in women, and it is estimated that 40% of those with PCOS may experience difficulty conceiving.

The hormonal irregularities found in women with PCOS also affect how the body handles sugar. Insulin resistance plays a prominent role in PCOS and can be supported through nutritional changes.
Diet and exercise play a VITAL role in the treatment and management of PCOS and can help regulate menstrual cycles and
improve insulin sensitivity when combined with nutritional changes. Treating the symptoms of PCOS is ultimately aimed at trying to regulate the menstrual cycle and reduce the risks of long-term health issues that are commonly associated with the condition, such as type 2 diabetes and heart disease due to metabolic and hormonal imbalances.
