How can women with PCOS/PMOS regulate periods naturally at home?

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I read your query and can understand your concern.

Since you have PCOS (polycystic ovary syndrome), now known as PMOS (polyendocrine metabolic ovarian syndrome), with irregular periods and a history of malnutrition, managing it naturally is possible by balancing hormones, improving nutrition, and maintaining a healthy lifestyle.

Since you mentioned malnourishment, improving your caloric intake and nutrient absorption is crucial. Consume a nutrient-dense diet for regulating periods, which includes -

1. Ghee, coconut oil, nuts like almonds and walnuts, and seeds like flaxseeds and chia seeds help regulate hormones.

2. Take eggs, fish, chicken, lentils, and dairy to support ovulation.

3. Take dark leafy greens, beetroot, and pomegranate if you have low hemoglobin.

4. Take pumpkin seeds, cashews, and dark chocolate to support hormone balance.

5. Avoid processed foods and sugars, as they can worsen insulin resistance, a key issue in PCOS or PMOS.

Here are some herbal remedies and home treatments that can help manage your PCOS or PMOS-

1. Spearmint tea helps reduce androgens that cause delayed periods. Drink one to two cups daily.

2. Cinnamon tea helps regulate the cycle and improve insulin sensitivity.

3. Fenugreek seeds, soaked overnight, help with hormonal balance and digestion.

4. Shatavari, an Ayurvedic herb, is known for regulating menstrual cycles and improving fertility.

Also, I am suggesting some lifestyle changes for you to follow -

1. Increase healthy weight gain by focusing on healthy fats, proteins, and carbohydrates like sweet potatoes and whole grains.

2. Mild exercise, such as yoga, walking, and stretching, helps without causing stress on the body.

3. Sunlight and vitamin D are important, as PCOS or PMOS is often linked with vitamin D deficiency. Try to have 20 to 30 minutes of sun exposure daily or take supplements.

4. Proper sleep is essential; aim for seven to nine hours of quality sleep to regulate hormones.

If your periods remain irregular for a long time or symptoms worsen, it might be helpful to see a doctor for further evaluation or hormonal support.

I hope this helps.

Take care.
