polycystic ovaries
Posted: Fri Aug 15, 2014 11:23 pm
A friend's daughter has asked me for help with this. I don't know whether she has full-on PCOS, but she says she is not aware of other symptoms from it, other than pain. I haven't asked yet what her menses pattern is.
She said she became aware of the problem last spring, when she had a sudden onset of severe pain, which the doc figured was caused by a cyst rupturing. (I think she said ultrasound showed the cysts? Not sure.) They have her on low-dose estrogen, and are wanting to do surgery, which she is unenthusiastic about. She's made dietary changes, going gluten-free (which reduces pain) and increasing fruits and veggies.
I would love to hear anyone's experiences with treating this?
For years I've been itching to give her Carcinosin, but will now restrain myself until I see whether case taking seems to support it; I am also looking into further suggestions for her, and would love to hear what others' experience has been with treating cystic ovaries.
Thanks for any input,
Shannon
