Introduction
Let’s talk about the best PCOS treatment options in India. We have talked about how PCOS treatment in Indian women should be approached differently. However, if you’ve been diagnosed with PCOS, you might feel overwhelmed by the flood of advice, treatment options, opinions, and remedies people swear by. The advice just never stops and it feels like being pulled in a thousand different directions. From lifestyle changes to medications, traditional remedies to modern interventions, there’s a lot of information out there, but you need to know that not all of it is helpful. In this post, we’ll break down what actually works for managing PCOS and what you can skip without feeling guilty.
PCOS treatment options in India
The best type of PCOS treatment is one that addresses the root cause and not just the symptoms you can see. PCOS symptoms are triggered by an hormonal imbalance in your body so a great PCOS treatment plan is one that will seek to help manage these symptoms. Let’s look at some treatment options you can try:
1. Lab Testing, Root Cause Assessment & Consultations
Most women with PCOS in India go undiagnosed because they don’t get the right tests done. The first step in treating PCOS is to understand what’s causing your symptoms. PCOS can look different for everyone and that’s why a one-size-fits-all approach won’t work. Comprehensive lab testing can uncover hormonal imbalances, insulin resistance, and other underlying issues that need to be addressed. At Cystar, we offer at-home lab testing and a personalized care plan to target the root cause of your PCOS and make sure you are not wasting your time on the wrong things.
2. Nutrition & Lifestyle Changes
PCOS is closely linked to diet and lifestyle. Eating the right foods and managing stress can do wonders for managing symptoms like irregular periods, acne, and weight gain. Cystar provides a PCOS-friendly meal plan with options that are tasty, balanced, and easy to follow, along with nutritionist follow-ups to make sure you stay on track.
A PCOS-friendly meal plan is not about starving yourself or following trendy diets, it’s about sustainable, nutrient-dense eating.
Here’s what works:
- Low Glycemic Index (GI) Foods: These help stabilize blood sugar. Think whole grains, beans, and leafy greens.
- High-Fiber Foods: Fiber improves digestion and helps with weight management.
- Healthy Fats and Lean Proteins: Avocado, nuts, seeds, and eggs are great options.
At Cystar, we provide a PCOS meal plan with four meal options for each meal time, snack ideas, and follow-ups with a nutritionist to adjust your plan based on your progress.
3. Root Cause Supplements & Medications
Supplements are also a great way of addressing hormonal imbalances, especially when combined with dietary changes. Some supplements you should check out include:
- Inositol: Helps improve insulin resistance.
- Vitamin D: Often deficient in women with PCOS, it plays a key role in hormonal balance.
- Omega-3 Fatty Acids: Reduces inflammation and improves metabolic health.
Cystar offers personalized supplement recommendations and monthly supplies for 3 months, so you know exactly what to take and when.
4. Mental Health Support
Living with PCOS goes beyond what you are feeling in your body, it can really affect your mental health, especially if you’re dealing with body image issues, anxiety, or mood swings. Therapy can help you manage these challenges. At Cystar, we provide you with private and group therapy sessions to offer emotional support and help you on your journey because we know it can get rough sometimes.
5. Yoga & Movement
Exercise doesn’t have to look like lifting a car. Gentle, consistent movement can improve insulin sensitivity and reduce stress. With 16 private 1:1 yoga sessions tailored to YOU and YOUR body, you can manage your PCOS without pushing yourself too hard.
