Poly Cystic Ovarian Syndrome

Poly Cystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) affects women

Women suffering from PCOS may notice symptoms of excessive hair growth on unusual parts of their bodies, hair loss and/or acne.  The hormone imbalance causes an over production of sebum, so extremely greasy hair is a frequent issue.  Irregular or non-existent periods are also a common factor of PCOS.  The hair at the top and centre of the head thins and the scalp becomes visible.   This can affect young females around the ages of 14-19 years old and is very traumatic.  We aim to assist with supporting this condition in terms of hair shedding, by slowing down the rate of hair loss with the aim to stop the shedding completely.   

Poly Cystic Ovarian Syndrome is caused by cysts present on the ovaries which unbalance your female hormones.  If you're suffering from Insulin resistance and obesity, these can also be factors affecting your hair condition.

Hair loss experienced with PCOS is caused by the raised testosterone levels and several other factors.  Women affected by PCOS have hair which can appear very straggly, thin, lank, lifeless and dull. After each hair growth cycle the hair thins over and over gain, until the body is bought into balance.

In the TrichoSynergy clinic, I will treat your scalp using light therapies.  You will have a thorough examination so that an assessment can be made to ensure that the condition of your hair and scalp is accurately diagnosed.  It’s highly likely, that you will be referred to your GP for blood testing.  Supplementation plays a major part in restoring and maintaining hair lost due to severe hormone fluctuations.  I will advise the correct nutrition and supplementation to support the recovery of your hair.
