Patient's question:
I was doing follicle monitoring at the hospital when I noticed that my follicle development was not particularly good. I haven't gone through menopause either. The doctor said I might have polycystic ovary syndrome. The kind of help I'm looking for: Traditional Chinese Medicine for Polycystic Ovary SyndromeDoctor's answer:
According to your description, upon careful examination, it was found that the follicular development is poor, and the polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is hidden. In this regard, it is recommended to conduct further detailed examinations to confirm the clinical diagnosis. It is suggested to add endocrine hormone tests and a thorough ultrasound examination for diagnosis. For PCOS, Western medicine considers the use of birth control pills for treatment. In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), it is necessary to diagnose and treat based on the four diagnostic methods (inspection, auscultation/olfaction, inquiry, and palpation). In this aspect, it is possible for Chinese and Western medicine to work together and use medications collaboratively to improve the condition.
