So what can you eat to help your recovery from polycystic ovary?

1. What Chinese medicine is good for polycystic ovary syndrome?

You can use Cangfu Daotan Pills with added ingredients, which include Cyperus rotundus, Tangerine peel, Angelica sinensis, Chuanxiong, Poria cocos, Citrus aurantium, Arisaema consanguineum, Atractylodes macrocephala, Shenqu, Pinellia ternata, and ginger. Add appropriate amount of water to the above medicines and start boiling. After boiling, take one dose a day. Take six to ten doses in a row as a course of treatment. If the patient also has symptoms of hirsutism, excessive phlegm, and obesity, you can also add Gleditsia sinensis thorns, pangolins, Trillium gracile, and Acorus gramineus. If there is a lump in the lower abdomen, add kelp and Prunella vulgaris. This prescription mainly plays the role of regulating qi, removing stagnation, drying dampness and removing phlegm, and is mainly used to treat polycystic ovary disease.

2. How long does it take to treat polycystic ovary with Chinese medicine?

If patients with polycystic ovary use Chinese medicine for conditioning, the final effect is very good, but the time for conditioning with Chinese medicine will be relatively long. Generally, it may take about three months. However, the specific time varies from person to person. It mainly depends on the patient's condition and the patient's cooperation in diet, medication, mentality and other aspects during conditioning. As long as the condition is slowly recovering, the patient should be more patient, because polycystic ovary disease itself takes a relatively long time, and as long as you are sick, there is always a recovery process.

3. Symptoms of PCOS

Infertility: The cause of infertility may be anovulation caused by hormonal disorders or ovarian insufficiency, or it may be caused by poor egg quality or progesterone deficiency, which causes poor endometrial growth and is not conducive to the implantation and development of the fertilized egg.

Hirsutism: Excessive androgens in the body cause excessive hair growth, so the distribution of hair tends to be masculine, such as increased beard, chest hair, hair from the navel to the pubic area, and hair on the anus and limbs, and coarse, thick and black pubic hair. Due to racial differences, Asian women do not have as obvious hirsutism as European and American patients. Sometimes accompanied by acne and hair loss.

Obesity: Almost 25% of patients will suffer from obesity. The relationship between obesity and PCOS is very complicated. It may be related to reduced insulin sensitivity. Moreover, obesity still exists after androgen drops to normal. If the patient presents with typical menstrual irregularities, infertility, hirsutism, and obesity, the diagnosis is not difficult. When symptoms are not obvious, some biochemical tests are needed. If serum androgens are elevated, estrogen loses its cyclical changes, gonadotropins are out of balance, or laparoscopic examination reveals polycystic changes in the ovaries, these can assist in diagnosis.

Chronic anovulation: manifested as menstrual disorders, infrequent menstruation, scanty menstrual flow, or even amenorrhea. A small number of patients have their menstruation only once in a long time, with heavy menstrual flow and long menstrual period.
