Rather than a single disease, PCOS encompasses various underlying biological mechanisms, leading to a range of symptoms such as androgen excess and anovulatory cycles. Identifying the specific functional type of PCOS is crucial for effective treatment.
HIGHLIGHTS
Understanding PCOS:
PCOS is primarily defined by androgen excess, often characterized by elevated male hormones, after ruling out other causes.
Contrary to its name, PCOS does not necessarily involve cysts on the ovaries. The so-called "cysts" are typically normal follicles or eggs.
Insulin Resistance:
Insulin resistance, associated with high insulin levels, is a common feature of PCOS.
Symptoms of insulin resistance may include cravings, weight gain, and dark patches on the skin.
Post-Pill PCOS:
Coming off certain contraceptive pills can lead to a temporary surge in androgens, qualifying as post-pill PCOS under current diagnostic guidelines.
Chronic Inflammation (Inc Thyroid Issues):
Chronic inflammation plays a significant role in stimulating excess testosterone production in the ovaries, contributing to PCOS.
Identifying and addressing underlying sources of inflammation are crucial for managing inflammatory PCOS.
Adrenal PCOS:
Adrenal PCOS, accounting for 10 percent of cases, involves elevated DHEAS levels without insulin resistance or inflammation.
Treatments for adrenal PCOS include various supplements and herbs to modulate adrenal androgens.

Beschreibung

Getting diagnosed with PCOS is confusing. It typically comes with very little information about what the condition actually is, or how to manage it long-term.
In this podcast, we will cover the keys to understanding WHAT PCOS is, the best approach to improving your PCOS and how to reduce your PCOS symptoms through non-medication based approaches.
If you have PCOS, then you can likely resonate with these incredibly frustrating realities:
* No matter what you do, you just cannot shift your weight and it feels like your friends can just eat WHATEVER they want!
* Despite taking all the supplements you are still not getting any improvements in your PCOS symptoms.
* Your hair is falling out at an alarming rate, meanwhile your facial hair-growth can’t be lasered off fast enough.
* Despite paying top dollar to see specialists you still feel no closer to an answer and you are fed up with the same ‘pat on the back and script for Metformin or the Oral Contraceptive Pill’.
If you’ve been recently diagnosed with PCOS or you’ve had PCOS for a long time and you are wondering what the heck do I do next and what do I need to do to reduce my symptoms this podcast exists to show you EXACTLY THAT!
