Patient's question:
23 years old, diagnosed with polycystic ovary syndrome one month agoDoctor's answer:
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) accounts for 30-60% of anovulatory infertility cases and requires treatment. The first step should be lifestyle adjustments, including quitting smoking, avoiding alcohol, and achieving reasonable weight loss.Oral contraceptives can correct hyperandrogenemia, provide effective contraception, and improve endometrial conditions. However, PCOS patients often have impaired glucose and lipid metabolism, so blood glucose and lipid levels should be monitored during medication. Additionally, contraindications to oral contraceptives must be ruled out.
I am not very familiar with the use of traditional Chinese medicine for PCOS treatment.
