PCOS Solutions and Hormone Balance
What Is Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Polycystic Ovary Syndrome, or PCOS, is a hormonal condition that affects how a woman’s ovaries work. In PCOS, the body produces higher levels of certain hormones—especially androgens (like testosterone)—which can interfere with normal ovulation. Instead of releasing an egg each month, the ovaries may form multiple small follicles that never fully mature, which is where the term “polycystic” comes from.
PCOS isn’t just about the ovaries—it’s also connected to insulin resistance and inflammation, which can affect metabolism and how your body uses sugar for energy. When insulin levels are high, the ovaries can produce even more androgens, which can cause symptoms. Over time, if untreated, PCOS can increase the risk of diabetes, high cholesterol, and other metabolic concerns—but with the right care, it’s very manageable.

How We Can Help You Treat PCOS
PCOS affects up to 1 in 10 women — yet nearly 70% go undiagnosed. At Optimized Body and Wellness, we focus on uncovering the root cause, not just masking symptoms.
Comprehensive Lab Evaluation
We assess key markers such as testosterone, DHEA, insulin, fasting glucose, estradiol, progesterone, thyroid hormones, and more to understand your unique hormonal picture.
Peptide & Metabolic Support
Targeted peptides such and weight loss medications can improve insulin sensitivity and support weight management. Supplements like Berberine, Magnesium, and Omega-3s may also be included to help stabilize blood sugar and inflammation.
Hormone Optimization
When appropriate, we use bioidentical hormone therapy (BHRT) to support progesterone and estrogen balance, helping regulate cycles and reduce androgen dominance.
Lifestyle & Nutritional Guidance
We help you design a plan that supports gut health, blood sugar balance, and hormone detoxification through proper nutrition and movement.
Ongoing Monitoring
Because PCOS is a dynamic condition, we track your progress through follow-up visits and lab reassessments to ensure your plan continues to work as your body changes.
