  2. Homeopathy can absolutely help, often with quickly observed results.

    The remedy you need depends on your constitutional symptoms. Your problem is beyond self-help care (otherwise, you can bet the medical profession would offer homeopathy).  Few people understand that homeopathy is the philosophy, not the remedy, so you'd need to contact a certified homeopath, who would talk with you for an hour or two to understand why you have these symptoms, then research and recommend a remedy that will restore hormonal balance (and cure the underlying cause of PCOS). In N. America, http://www.homeopathicdirectory.com. Worldwide, homeopaths are otherwise pretty available.

  3. This natural solution to the issue of PCOS seems to work for many women.

    A protomorphogen extract from Standard Process called Symplex F. Take 1 or 2 tablets per day for one year. You should be able to get this from your pharmacists.

    Make up a mix of equal parts of peony root (Paeonia lactiflora) and licorice root (Glycyrrhiza glabra) and take about 1/2 to 1 teaspoon of this 2 to 3 x per day for a maximum of 6 months. You should give this a break for about 1 week every 4 - 6. weeks.

    You should eliminate sugars, breads, and cereals from the diet. These items cause the body to produce insulin to oxidize the sugars and insulin and insulin-like growth factor (IGF-1) are produced as a result.  Elevated insulin levels lead to an excess of male hormones.  These types of carbs greatly affect the way the Leptrin hormone in the liver that determines how the insulin works in your body.

    Any scars, injuries, tattoos, vaccination sites, piercings you have on the front of your body can reflex to the ovaries and cause cysts to form like the ones that cause PCOS.  PCOS is very common in the U.S. where women typically get episiotomies when in child birth from physicians that have no clue as to the long term effects of them.

    Once the scar is treated, the cysts typically go away.

    I am certain if you follow the above advice, you will be amazed at how quickly you can solve those problems. It takes about 3 weeks, typically to solve the PCOS issue by following the above for you to see real results.

    good luck to you

    About Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS)

    "As I have often related in this column, "normalizing" hormones by simply giving the person synthetic hormone pills violates the basic principle of healing. Instead, whenever possible, the doctor or healer should strive to teach the patient a way to normalize the hormones on their own. In your case, by changing your diet you have started on this road to healing. The reason why changing to a diet based on the principles of Nourishing Traditions is the first step in the therapy of PCOS is that your ovaries need the animal fats, and yes, even the cholesterol found in food in order to make estrogen and progesterone, the correct female hormones. Swollen ovaries is a condition analogous to goiter, when the thyroid swells in response to iodine deficiency. Goiters often also result in a hormonal imbalance leading to hypothyroidism. In the case of PCOS, the starvation of the ovaries causes them to become cystic, swollen and eventually unable to regulate the synthesis of their hormones.

    The other main dietary trigger for this imbalance is that when the proper dietary fats are missing, they are inevitably replaced by excessive carbohydrate consumption. This results in excessive insulin production, weight gain, abdominal bloating, and eventually will itself cause hormonal shifts. The biochemistry of this process is well described in the book The Schwarzbein Principle which also suggests a diet based on the principles in Nourishing Traditions, along with a restriction to about 75 grams of carbohydrates per day. More good fats and fewer carbohydrate foods should help in restoring your hormones to their proper balance.

    In addition to the dietary program I have outlined, there are many natural medicines which I have seen, and which have been shown in the medical literature to help PCOS. The first is the protomorphogen extract from Standard Process called Symplex F. This medicine is a mixture of specially processed glandular extracts from the four organs that make up the so-called pituitary axis--the pituitary, thyroid, adrenal glands and the ovaries. It was the insight of Dr. Royal Lee to suggest that it is far more productive to work on the entire system rather than trying to normalize one gland. For we now know that these glands compensate for each other, and that they all get ill as a group. I usually give a dose of 1-2 tablets per day for one whole year to help normalize the function of these important organs.

    The final therapy that I use for PCOS is a 50/50 mixture of the herbal extracts of Peony lactiflora and Glycyrrhiza uralensis (commonly known as licorice). There have been three studies in the literature showing that this combination of herbs can result in a complete remission in PCOS, and that it does so by normalizing adrenal function and reducing testosterone levels. It is important to use the correct dosages, which were also indicated in these studies.* I use the Mediherb extracts and give them at a dose of 1/2 to 1 teaspoon of the mixture, 2-3 times per day. I usually use this mixture for six months with breaks of a week or two every 4-6 weeks. "

    This is a sample traditional diet, this one is for pregnant/nursing mama's, so you would just have half portions or so.

    I know this is what my body needed, it increased my breast milk supply and got rid of my gall stones!
