Exploring alternative options for treating PCOS.

Exploring alternative options for treating PCOS.

Over the past few years, it has become increasingly evident that PCOS is not only complicated to diagnose but, treat as well. Medications have been very effective in helping women with the syndrome combat many of the symptoms associated with PCOS however for many women, the effectiveness does not always last using medication, alone.

As result, there has been an emergence of information and tools to help women and girls control PCOS through lifestyle change. Lifestyle change has been clinically proven to reduce insulin sensitivity in patients with PCOS, allowing them to alleviate many of the symptoms such as weight, acne, infertility and irregular menstrual cycles.

Dr. Dennis Gage, a Project PCOS Expert ,Author of The Thinderella Syndrome and Director of The Thinderella Lifestyle Change Program (TLC), is helping women and girls with PCOS by providing the tools for success through his TLC Program, which exclaims, “Don’t do a diet, live a diet”. Dr. Gage explains, “Dieting itself connotates the concept of a restrictive pattern that is to last for a certain amount of time and then is to be completed. It is as if the patient has a finite amount of time to spend on the diet and then it's over. However it is really the lifestyle change or the everyday patterns that a person goes through that dictates what they are going to weigh.”

Through the TLC Program, these lifestyle changes are what ultimately dictates success. This program is more than controlling carbohydrates and sugars, it is the development of lifestyle pattern, which will ultimately help patients live healthier lives by engaging them in become active participants in their health.
