How
Biotherapy Alternative Medicine Clinic can help people with
Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS).
Are you one of the millions of women with
Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) who have
failed to reverse the symptoms of this
condition no matter what you have tried? If
you are here, most likely you are looking for
an alternative non-drug approach for your
condition? You are not alone. PCOS affects 10
percent of American women, is the most common
endocrine cause of infertility and serious
weight gain in young women, and can lead to
increased risk of diabetes, heart attacks and
strokes in young women, and early onset breast
and uterine cancers. Sounds scary, right? But
the truly scary fact is that many PCOS
sufferers are totally unaware they have it.
Symptoms of polycystic ovarian syndrome can
vary greatly from person to person. No two
women are affected exactly the same way.
Someone with PCOS may experience some or all
of the following symptoms:
·
Infertility
·
Lack of menstrual periods (amenorrhea)
·
Lack of ovulation and therefore infertility (Anovulation)
·
Very light menstrual cycles (Oligomenorrhea)
·
Dysfunctional uterine bleeding (abnormal
bleeding patterns)
·
Endometrial hyperplasia (Endometriosis) and
cancer
·
Excess hair growth, usually in a male pattern
(Hirsutism)
·
Acne
·
Insulin resistance (problems with blood sugar
regulation)
·
Male-pattern hair loss and abdominal fat
deposition
·
Weight gain
·
Some women have no symptoms.
Most women spend many frustrating years
seeking individual treatment for symptoms such
as infertility, acne, overweight, excess body
hair and don’t even realize that all their
symptoms can bring them to much more dangerous
condition.
Symptoms of PCOS can be highly bothersome and
its complications can be dangerous, but this
condition can be treated, and with proper
treatment, it will not interfere with your
normal, everyday activities.
There is likely a genetic component to
polycystic ovarian syndrome. But skyrocketing
rise of this condition for last 60 years shows
that problem is not in heredity, the problem
is environmental: life style, eating habits,
and toxicity we have outside and inside us.
In many cases, PCOS is caused by
metabolic
syndrome or insulin resistance,
excess consumption of animal foods (high in
arachidonic acid), sugar and processed food,
chronic stress, nutrient deficiencies,
Candida – yeast
overgrow and high levels of
inner toxicity.
In women affected by PCOS, there is often a
“resistance” of cells in the body to insulin.
75% women with PCOS have insulin resistance
and are overweight. As a result, the pancreas
makes more insulin to try to compensate the
“resistance”. The excessively high level of
insulin can lead to many health problems and
can cause hormonal storm and chaos in the
woman’s body. Too much insulin controls
pituitary gland and growth hormone, stores fat
and gains weight, rises in the androgen
(testosterone), causes brain fog, fatigue,
depression, water retention, leads to problems
in the ovary’s production of eggs. Often, the
eggs turn into cysts, which are like little
fluid-filled sacs.
At Biotherapy Alternative Medicine Clinic of
San Francisco Bay Area we offer a non-drug
approach to Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS).
Often PCOS is rubber-stamped as just a
fertility issue, but sadly, it encompasses so
much more.
Acupuncture
improves ovulation in PCOS women.
A study at Goteborg University in Sweden
showed that acupuncture may help some PCOS
women to ovulate. In this study,
electro-acupuncture was used instead of
traditional acupuncture. Electro-acupuncture,
the application of a pulsating electrical
current to acupuncture needles as a means of
stimulating the acupuncture points, was
developed in China as an extension of hand
manipulation of acupuncture needles.
Twenty-four women with PCOS and infrequent or
absent periods were included in this study.
After 10-14 treatments for 2-3 months, nine
women (38%) experienced regular ovulation.
However, the electro-acupuncture was not
effective in the more severe cases (obese,
highest waist-to-hip ratio, and highest
testosterone and insulin individuals). For
women with mild PCOS, acupuncture appears to
help very well to induce ovulation.
Whole Body Cleansing

hunger pains. When you finally balance your
diet needs, your food cravings will disappear,
and you will wake up each day with more than

Herbal Medicine.
Depending on your symptoms of PCOS, a variety
of herbal therapies may be considered. The
goal of herbal medicine might include:
reducing circulating androgens, optimizing
ovarian function, and supporting optimal
endocrine function.
Nutritional
Supplementation.
Nutritional therapies can help to regulate
blood sugar and insulin levels, reduce
circulating androgens, improve ovarian
function, improve fertility, reduce risk of
heart disease, and support liver
detoxification of estrogens.
Stress Management
and PCOS. Understanding and managing
stress is a crucial component of your plan to
control PCOS and improve your fertility.
Stress is any stimulation to the body that
challenges its sense of balance and triggers a
significant set of biological responses. These
responses include a release of stress
hormones, an increase in blood sugar,
tightening of muscles, shallowness of breath,
rising blood pressure, and rapid heart rate.
Stress also diminishes quality of life and
sense of well-being, predisposes to gain
weight, and interferes with progesterone
setting the stage for estrogen dominance and
subsequent menstrual cycle irregularities.
Progesterone insufficiency and estrogen
dominance are characteristics of PCOS women
and contribute to infertility. Polycystic
ovarian syndrome is itself a major stressor.
Excess hair growth, hair loss, overweight,
acne, absent periods and infertility all
diminish self esteem.
For stress reduction we use different kind of
technique such as relaxation, medical
hypnosis, and self hypnosis (we can produce a
custom-made self hypnosis CD for you).
There is no single solution that reverses PCOS
and infertility or assess all the symptoms.
