Suggest Ways To Manage PCOS And Varicose Veins

Hello Doctor, I have had many symptoms of PCOS, an ultrasound imaging showed one ovary bigger than the usual. Since I have varicose veins I am not allowed to be on the pill. How can I balance my hormones alternatively? Hair loss has been pretty bad recently.

Metformin or weight loss are also helpful for PCOS. A defining feature of PCOS which is even more of an indication than the ovaries is having excess male hormones. This will produce male pattern baldness. cannot say in your particular case, but generally, this would be a pCOS desription and metformin or weight loss would fix things.
