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.

PCOS Made Easy CD Review and Contest!
PCOS Made Easy CD Review and Contest!
Kate Marsh and Dr. Adam Fraser have masterfully created a guide to help women and girls with PCOS achieve healthier and happier lives with polycystic ovary syndrome. The CD " PCOS Made Easy", is a wealth of information about PCOS, PCOS Symptoms and how PCOS can affect the body. This however should not be mistaken as a PCOS overview, as it is so much more. It provides the tools women and girls need to help conquer the symptoms, leading to better health and control of PCOS.
It is very important for girls and women living with the syndrome to understand that PCOS is an endocrine (metabolic) disorder and it is not always simply controlled by taking medications, rather it requires changes to lifestyle to help maximize health and successful treatment.
Along with this rather enjoyable exploration of PCOS and the PCOS Lifestyle, the listener is also provided with a data disc that offers one of the most comprehensive set of tools for women and girls to develop a plan that will work for them including nutritional guides, exercise tips and tricks, cooking tips and facts on foods.
This CD empowers women and girls with PCOS by making information and tools accessible, understandable and most importantly, enjoyable. I believe it is an invaluable resource and am looking forward to incorporating it in to my own plan for better health with PCOS.
The CD will be available for sale through the Project PCOS website over the next week! $5.00 of every U.S. sale will be donated to Project PCOS and $5.00 of every Australian sale will be donated to POSAA.
