Gluten Allergy Acne
Looking for herbal remedies for PCOS in 19yr old girl. On Yasmine, fish oil, SameE, MultiVit, insulex, calcium
My daughter has put on a lot of weight recently. A scan showed a number of follicles, but not cysts yet. Her androgen was high, but not outrageous. She has severe acne. She also appears to have insulin resistance. She is eating a low GI & gluten free diet (GFree due to family allergies/intolerances & advice by a naturopath). She is quite depressed, snappy & very moody. She used to be very easy going, but is not anymore. The problem has been recently diagnosed. I have heard that liquorice & peony root is good. Does anyone know of any other herbal things or homeopathic things that can help. The multivitamin she is on is specifically for women & high in chromium & other minerals.
Thank you, Kerry
I’m 19 and have PCOS too. Some remedies for it are birth control pills and metformin helps with period pain and insulin resistance. I find that taking a vitamin B complex supplement helps with the insulin resistance as far as weight loss. Exercise helps too. Herbal supplements that work are agnes castus is suppossed to help with irregualr or painful periods, sarsaparilla, white peony combined with licorice, chinese angelica, blue cohosh, motherwort, and nettle ( help counter high androgen levels). There’s a great book that you should get. Managing PCOS For Dummies
