PCOS: What Actually Helps

PCOS is increasingly diagnosed in women in their twenties in Dhaka, often after months of irregular cycles or unexplained weight gain.

The interventions with the strongest evidence are unglamorous: regular movement, consistent sleep, and modest weight reduction where relevant. Treatment supports these rather than substituting for them.

Cycle tracking is essential. Six months of recorded dates tells us far more than any single consultation description can.

Coordination with your gynaecologist is encouraged, particularly where fertility is a current concern. Bring recent ultrasound and hormonal reports to your first visit.
