Cycle support

PCOS & Menstrual Concerns

Support for irregular cycles, PCOS patterns, acne, hair changes, cravings, PMS, cramps or uncertainty about ovulation.

Overview

A whole-person way to understand your symptoms.

PCOS and menstrual concerns can affect much more than the calendar. Patients may notice changes in skin, hair growth or hair shedding, cravings, mood, energy, digestion, fertility planning and confidence.

A pattern-based approach considers ovulation, blood sugar, inflammation, stress, sleep, thyroid function, nutrient status and the practical realities of your life.

This may be a fit if

You are looking for clarity, not a one-size-fits-all plan.

Every patient’s story is different. These are common reasons people book this type of appointment.

  • Your periods are irregular, absent, very heavy, very painful or difficult to predict.
  • You have been told you may have PCOS or want help understanding a diagnosis.
  • Acne, hair growth, hair shedding or cravings seem connected to your cycle.
  • You want support with ovulation tracking or preconception planning.
  • You want a plan more personalized than generic advice.

  • Acupuncture or referral conversations depending on symptoms and goals.

Common questions

Before you book.

Do I need an official PCOS diagnosis before booking?

No. You can book to discuss irregular cycles, acne, hair changes or symptoms that may warrant further assessment.

Will the plan be restrictive?

The goal is realistic support, not shame-based restriction.

Can care work with birth control or metformin?

Yes. Bring your medication list so recommendations can be made safely.
