Diet For PCOD/PCOS

Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is a condition that affects 5-10% of women of childbearing age.
PCOS is associated with: irregular menstrual cycles, abnormal hair growth or loss, abdominal obesity, elevated insulin levels, elevated testosterone levels, polycystic ovaries, dark patches of velvety skin on neck, arms, breasts or thighs, acne, and infertility.
More and more females are being affected from this condition because of gradual shift in eating and lifestyle patterns.
Nearly 50% of women with PCOS are overweight or obese.
Improving your diet and exercise program by making lifestyle changes may reduce your risk for developing chronic diseases associated with PCOS such as diabetes, heart disease and endometrial cancer.
The management of PCOD is mainly diet based.

We first assess and analyze the root cause behind your PCOS/PCOD, whether it is because of sedentary life style, or irregular dietary patterns or genetics.
This will aid us in designing the customized diet plan in the utmost accurate manner on the basis of balanced healthy food and nutrition that leads to Weight loss which can improve your insulin sensitivity, as well. That may reduce the risk of diabetes, heart disease, and other PCOS complications.
Studies indicate that if a patient implements healthy habits with regard to diet and exercise, it could enhance her hormonal function and improve ovulation.
We aim at changing your lifestyle. It is a process which is going to take time and some effort from your side. Kindly do not expect some quick fix in treating PCOD/S as it would be unrealistic.
