A member asked:
Is there any other way to treat pcos than to take medication?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes there is...: Since a similar physiological link has been found between pcos and diabetes therefore lifestyle modification it is also encouraged as first line of treatment. In other words, a healthy diet and regular exercise with the goal a losing weight and staying active, have been found to help with this condition.
