12.01.2022 Polycystic ovarian syndrome // PCOS If you’ve been diagnosed with PCOS seek the root cause of where this condition is being driven from to help direct treatment Most commonly PCOS is from insulin resistance. Too much insulin drives excess androgen production and impairs ovulation leading to PCOS if you have the genetic susceptibility (yes genetics plays a role here too). Dietary and lifestyle changes is first step - completely quit sugar, look at your dairy tolerance, intro...ducing a Mediterranean style diet of Whole Foods, lean protein, variety of vegetables. Herbal medicine combination of peony & licorice is specific to lower your LH: FSH ratio and lower excess androgens. Post pill PCOS arrises as the pill depletes the body of vital nutrients the reproductive system needs and increases susceptibility to insulin resistance. Be mindful of eating well and eating enough here, your body needs carbohydrates to ovulate, but again minimize sugar. Nutritional supplementation is key (esp Zinc) so your ovaries have adequate nutrients to kick back into gear. Herbal medicine of specific combinations are also indicated to promote ovulation. Inflammatory PCOS is driven from environmental toxins by disrupting hormones and suppressing ovulation while stimulating your adrenals to over produce androgens. smoking, inflam foods, and having digestive issues all contribute. This is often associated with unexplained fatigue, headaches, joint pain, digestive issues, skin conditions (eczema/ psoriasis). Anti inflammatory diet avoiding wheat and dairy, and removing environmental toxins. Zinc and magnesium are both effective along with probiotics. Adrenal PCOS is when you don’t have insulin resistance, no inflammation, and your only high androgens are DHEAs (testosterone and androstenedione are normal). An abnormal stress response (HPA axis) drives this PCOS so lowering stress is your main treatment. Zinc and magnesium both regulate your HPA axis along with B vitamins. Herbal medicine like Rhodiola is vital in assisting your stress response #pcos #education #naturopath #health #womenshealth

02.01.2022 MISSING YOUR PERIOD OR HAVING IRREGULAR PERIODS ?? Most of my clients between PMS and acne complaints come to me to find their period. These two very common conditions can seem quite similar in presentation until doing a little digging. Pathology results can reveal which underlying condition is occurring to help treatment direction. The biggest differentiation is that PCOS is a metabolic + reproductive condition with androgen excess. ... Hypothalamic amenorrhea (HA) is commonly found when your period goes missing with a picture of high stress, restrictive diet (women need carbohydrates to ovulate !!!!) and excessive exercise and training (which is an added physical stress on top of emotional and mental stress from lifestyle factors) #naturopath #health #womenshealth #education #pcos #hypothalamicamenorrhea #period #periodhealth #periodtalk #naturalhealth #herbalmedicine #educationispower
