About this episode
Why Healing Your PCOS Naturally is important Lifestyle is the only way to treat PCOS in its entirety! It gets to the root cause. It balances all the hormones . It alleviates and lessens all of the symptoms. It's not picking and choosing one thing and not addressing other things. This is really important because when we start looking at medical approaches, this is not the case. When we look at creating an environment that is healing to your PCOS, that nourishes your body, allows your hormones to move back towards balance, boosts your fertility, helps you to manage your weight, and alleviate all the other symptoms. We aren't just covering up a symptom with a bandaid. You are setting yourselves up for less risk going forward. How Your Doctor Fits into a Natural Approach This is why I love the natural approach to PCOS, but it does not exclude medical assistance. My background as a medical provider has given me the opportunity to treat patients with all sorts of prescriptions and procedures, and I find medicine to be a modern miracle. There are so many amazing things that I can do for my patients, but it's so important to help people find a way to be doing their part at home to create health so that they can thrive. So how can your doctor fit into how you want to manage your PCOS? There is not a cookie cutter one-way to do that. You get to have a choice . You get to choose how much or how little you want medical intervention. Now I urge you to always seek your doctor's opinion or seek a second opinion if you aren't sure you agree with what your doctor wants to do. They have medical training, they are looking at your entire health, and so you want to always ask and understand your doctor's advice. In this episode, we're going to be talking about how to have those conversations with your doctor so that the way that you want to manage your PCOS is not pushed aside with the way that they normally address PCOS in their clinic.
