Patient's question:
My relative is a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner, but I'm not particularly fond of traditional Chinese medicine because I feel Western medicine is more about treating the root cause. I recently had a thorough check-up with a Western doctor and was diagnosed with polycystic ovary syndrome. I'm very worried and scared. My relative wants to treat me. Is traditional Chinese medicine effective for polycystic ovary syndrome?Doctor's answer:
This involves an endocrine hormone level imbalance, and traditional Chinese medicine treatment can still be effective to some extent. It can help regulate the endocrine system and stabilize the body's constitution. It is recommended to consult a doctor who can determine appropriate medications based on individual constitution and adhere to treatment. It requires a process to be effective. The doctor can examine the pulse and tongue to carefully select medications and monitor the condition. Regular follow-up and adjustment of the treatment plan are necessary.
