Patient's question:
At the age of 18, I was diagnosed with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Now I'm 20, and previously I only understood Western medical treatments. However, a Chinese medicine practitioner told me that taking traditional Chinese medicine for two or three months can completely cure PCOS, and it's a permanent cure. Have you heard of such cases?Doctor's answer:
Hello, it's a pleasure to help you. Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) has a complex etiology, and treatment methods are divided into 1. Lifestyle adjustment, 2. Medication, 3. Surgical treatment. Relatively speaking, the treatment is also quite troublesome, requiring a systematic and thorough examination to determine the treatment method based on different causes. You mentioned traditional Chinese medicine, which should be able to target the treatment, but if it can be completely cured in two or three months, it is generally not possible.
