Personalized PMS and PCOS Treatment in Kelowna

Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is a common hormone-related condition that can be associated with irregular periods, signs of androgen excess such as acne or increased hair growth, insulin resistance, weight changes, and fertility challenges.

Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS) affects many women, causing mood swings, bloating, breast tenderness, and fatigue before menstruation. Both conditions can significantly impact daily life and emotional well-being, but they are manageable with proper treatment.

At Bailey Health, we provide care for PMS and PCOS through personalized assessment, lifestyle guidance, and treatment options where clinically appropriate. Our approach focuses on identifying contributing factors, supporting metabolic health, addressing inflammation where clinically relevant, and developing a personalized care plan.

Our treatment philosophy is centered around proactive, preventative care. We understand that no two women are the same, and so each treatment plan is carefully designed to meet the individual needs of our patients. We combine conventional medical treatments with holistic therapies, ensuring a comprehensive approach to managing both PMS and PCOS.

Hormonal Balance

Hormonal imbalances are a key factor in both PMS and PCOS. Where clinically appropriate, we may assess hormone levels, including estrogen, progesterone, and androgens, and discuss treatment options. These may include hormone therapy prescribed by an authorized practitioner.

Insulin Sensitivity

Insulin resistance is often a key contributor to PCOS symptoms. We support patients with diet and lifestyle changes aimed at improving insulin sensitivity. This may include dietary guidance and, where appropriate, discussion of supplements such as inositol or chromium.

Holistic Support

Holistic approaches are a cornerstone of our treatment plans. We may incorporate dietary changes, stress reduction techniques, and complementary options such as acupuncture referrals or herbal/supplement guidance where appropriate and within provider scope. These supports are intended to address factors that may contribute to your symptoms. Our team of naturopathic doctors works closely with patients to recommend the most effective complementary treatments.
