7 Top PCOS Treatments Scientifically Proven To Work

You have Polycystic Ovary Syndrome and you want to know what to do… What PCOS treatments areavailable and more importantly, what treatments have been proven to work AND which ones havenot.

They are great questions, and super important.

I remember asking them when I was rst diagnosed many years ago. I wasn’t told anything about thissyndrome or how it could affect me, other than coming back if and when I want to become pregnantbecause “you’ll need drugs.”

When I look back, I know that’s because not much was known about PCOS. Sadly though, even withall of the research that has now been done, not much of it has seeped through into the mainstream –or even alternative – health fields.

So, I want to share some of my insights with you…

The rst thing I always focus on as a health professional is the old adage, ‘First, Do No Harm.’ Thisshould be paramount. Now, let’s dive in!

Which PCOS treatments have been proven to work? That’s the topic for today’s post. I will look atthose that don’t in a future blog post, so make sure you sign up to our RSS feed so you don’t miss it.

The best way to do this is through positive lifestyle choices. We know that sugar is a majorcontributor to insulin resistance, and so to Polycystic Ovary Syndrome. So to treat PCOS, we need toreduce or remove re ned sugar from our consumables. To learn more about sugar, read my post The#1 Common Food Causing & Aggravating Your PCOS Signs And Symptoms.

4) Lose weight, where needed4) Lose weight, where needed

With overweight and obesity, as well as trouble shifting unwanted fat, so common in PCOS, this canseem like an obvious but impossible task. I’m sure many of you reading this have been told at somepoint, ‘Just lose weight!’ But it’s not that easy…

Or at least, it’s not that easy without addressing the underlying and if you follow the regular advice.I’ve lost 26kg and kept it off for years and I’ve helped other women easily shift unwanted weight. Thisis a most critical of the PCOS treatments as it will help with so many PCOS signs and symptoms.

5) Stress Less5) Stress Less

Ah, that insatiable beast that heavily hangs over many of our lives! I cannot state strongly enoughhow important addressing stress is, especially with women with PCOS.

Stress can reduce fertility, weight loss, digestive function (and so nutrient absorption), cause anxiety,depression, and insulin resistance. It reduces sex hormone binding globule (SHBG), leading to moreunbound hormones in your body – like the testosterone that causes excessive hair growth and acne.It reduces the quality of life.

Addressing stress is so critical I have dedicated a complete chapter to it in Conquer Your PCOSNaturally and THREE modules revolve around this in my Conquer Your PCOS – The 12 Week ActionPlan.

If you have PCOS, you MUST address stress!

6) Exercise6) Exercise

Ooohhh… That scary word! It’s less scary in practice than in theory! In fact, for many women, it’sabsolutely fun. Exercise helps us to balance our hormones, reduce stress, improve blood ow, andease pain. Find out my 6 golden rules of exercise now.

It has some wonderful bene ts. Easy to carry, pre-wrapped, full of nutrients, the carbs are pre-packedwith fibre, which moderates the blood sugar, I could go on…

The great news is, you are in control and there is so much you can do to reduce – even completelyeliminate – your PCOS signs and symptoms and grab back control of your life. You deserve to behappy and healthy and live a long and joyful life. Addressing PCOS naturally is critical, and whetheryou choose to opt for the natural or the medical approach, the above strategies have been proven tohelp.

They have helped me to restore a period after 15 years without one, to lose 26kg and keep it off, toreduce body hair and (mostly) eliminate any spots, fatigue and mood swings…

And I’ve helped many other women achieve success in many areas, to reduce their PCOS signs andsymptoms, to go from infertility and motherhood, to lose stubborn fat and more. I must say, it lls myheart with joy!
