Doctors’ responses

Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) can indeed lead to the symptoms you’re experiencing, like irregular periods, unwanted hair growth, and weight gain. While there isn’t a definitive cure for PCOS, there is strong evidence suggesting that lifestyle changes can significantly ameliorate symptoms and improve fertility chances. Start by focusing on maintaining a healthy weight, since even a modest weight loss of 5-10% might help regulate your cycles and improve insulin sensitivity. Incorporating regular physical activity into your routine—aim for at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic exercise per week—can be beneficial. Pay attention to your diet, emphasizing whole foods high in fiber such as fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins while reducing intake of refined carbohydrates and sugary foods that can spike insulin levels. Additionally, a healthcare provider may recommend medications such as birth control pills to regulate your periods and metformin to improve insulin resistance. For hair growth issues, there’s the option of hair removal techniques or medications like spironolactone. Consider working closely with an endocrinologist or a fertility specialist to explore ovulation induction therapies if conception is a priority, as they can individualize a treatment plan for achieving pregnancy. Remember, managing stress and maintaining adequate sleep also play roles in managing PCOS effectively. It’s crucial to have regular check-ups since PCOS can increase the risk for certain conditions such as type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease over time. Please consult a healthcare provider for a tailored plan best suited to your specific medical needs and circumstances.
