If you are living with the awful symptoms of PCOS then finding techniques to end this condition is essential which is where Natural PCOS Treatments come in.
Natural cures are the most effective ways to reverse PCOS because they go beyond stopping symptoms and tackle the root causes of PCOS. natural cures are also safer compared to traditional ways of managing the condition.
Hormone Therapy - Many medical practitioners are trained to believe that PCOS can be managed with hormone replacement therapy. This is not only wrong but it also can damage a woman's health! Hormone therapy basically tries to normalize hormone levels especially estrogen because the symptoms of polycystic ovary syndrome are caused by hormonal imbalances. This is not as good as it sounds however as the unbalanced hormones is just a symptom of a deeper problem. Also, hormone therapy has been known to increase risks of stroke, blood clots and breast cancer.
Drugs - Like HRT other pharmaceutical solutions do not fix the problems because they try to overcome the symptoms not the root cause of PCOS. Some drug companies do understand that the root issues need to be addressed but do not end the problem but instead only temporarily relieve the problem ... meaning the PCOS is still there but only suppressed! As soon as you stop taking the drugs the infertility, menstrual problems, weight gain, hair and all the other PCOS problems will return. Not to mention many women suffer terrible side effects when on certain drugs.
So what is the root cause of PCOS you are probably wondering and how do you fix it.
The answer to this is Insulin Resistance. This is a condition where insulin, which the body produces is used to take convert blood sugar to give energy and the building blocks of life for various functions - but the insulin is not very effective. As such, the body makes huge amounts of insulin in the hopes that more insulin will equal more energy as a small percentage of a lot might be enough.
The end result is a body flooded with insulin which is a hormone.
This causes massive knock on effects to your hormone balance which results in fluctuations of estrogen, progesterone and other hormones which throws your body and menstrual systems in chaos and thus ... PCOS happens.
So to cure PCOS you must counter insulin resistance which requires a combination of a change in how you think, dietary changes and lifestyle changes which can balance your hormones and cater for your insulin resistance so it does not happen again.
