PCOS
Polycystic ovary syndrome — irregular cycles, insulin resistance, hormonal imbalance — approached with acupuncture and herbs at AHC Chicago.
Overview
About pcos
PCOS is a metabolic and hormonal syndrome with a strong insulin-resistance component. TCM patterns typically combine Phlegm-Dampness with Kidney or Spleen deficiency. Acupuncture has some of the strongest published evidence for PCOS-related cycle regulation and ovulatory function.
Treatment
How we treat it
Weekly acupuncture over 3–6 months, combined with herbal formulas targeting the identified pattern, produces cycle regulation for many patients. Blood sugar management is discussed and coordinated with any endocrinology care. Weight-related work is approached gently and without shame-based framing.
