My doctor recently diagnosed me with PCOS and mentioned my testosterone levels are a bit high. I'm worried about the hair growth and acne. What can I do to bring them down?

Beta, PCOS mein testosterone kam karne ke liye ghar ke nuskhe bhi kaam aate hain. Methi dana paani, pudina ki chai, aur amla ka juice peena achha mana jaata hai. Lekin sabse zaroori hai apna vajan control mein rakhna aur doctor ki salah lena. Woh medicines bhi denge toh theek ho jaayega.

For lowering testosterone in PCOS, diet and lifestyle modifications are primary. Focus on a low-GI diet, rich in fiber, and avoid processed foods and excessive sugar. Regular exercise also plays a big role. Your doctor might prescribe certain medications, so always follow their guidance. It's a holistic approach.

As someone with PCOS, I know how challenging managing testosterone levels can be. The most effective way is a combination of dietary changes (low glycemic index, less sugar), regular physical activity, and if needed, medication prescribed by your gynaecologist. Spearmint tea is often talked about, but check with your doctor first. It's a journey, be patient.

Testosterone in PCOS? Sounds like another thing to worry about when you're already trying to get some sleep! My friend's wife has PCOS, and she says cutting out sweets and just walking more has made a difference. And obviously, the doctor's pills. Wish it was as simple as getting more sleep!

Oh, PCOS symptoms can be so frustrating, and high testosterone is definitely one of them. I used to overthink everything about my health! For this, consistency in a low-sugar, whole-foods diet and regular exercise is generally recommended. But definitely get your specific plan from a gynaecologist or endocrinologist. You're not alone in this.

PCOS aur high testosterone? Uff, that's like your body playing a prank on you! 😂 But don't worry. Cutting down on junk food, especially sugary stuff, is super important. And yeah, working out helps. Think of it as telling your hormones, 'Hey, chill out!' But seriously, doc's advice is key here.

Well, I don't have PCOS, but my sister does. For her, the doc said to seriously cut down on junk food and sugar. And she started doing yoga and some light exercises daily. It helped her feel better and control symptoms. Always go to a good gynaecologist, they know best.
