Can Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) be treated with Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM)?

Patient's question:

Doctor, I want to ask a few questions. My period is quite regular, never less than three days early or late. However, there is no obvious ovulation period during the entire cycle, and it has basically not appeared again. So, I haven't gotten pregnant yet. I want to ask if ovulation disorder can be cured with traditional Chinese medicine?

Doctor's answer:

For those with ovulation disorders who do not see significant improvement with traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) treatment, it is generally necessary to use Western pharmaceutical hormone drugs for rescue treatment. Alternatively, integrated Chinese and Western medicine treatment can be adopted. Chinese medicine can be prescribed for treatment, which tends to be relatively more effective. You can decide to visit the gynecology department of a large private Grade A hospital in your area for follow-up. After improving relevant tests, hormone drugs can be used for treatment while coordinating with Chinese medicine. Additionally, regular physical exercise should be enhanced, and a diet rich in high-quality protein should be consumed.
