Lets talk about facial hair from PCOS!
Understanding and Managing facial hair with PCOS:
Today, I want to share a topic that is close to my heart and has been a significant part of my personal struggle—hirsutism in Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS). I remember having to go get my lip waxed as a teenager & now I do occasional dermaplane treatments
Hirsutism, characterized by excessive hair growth, can be a challenging symptom for women with PCOS. Trust me; I know firsthand the impact it can have on self-esteem and confidence. Over the years, I've researched and experimented with various approaches to manage hirsutism, and I'm excited to share my findings with you.
1. Insulin Resistance: A Key Culprit in Hirsutism
One of the major causes of hirsutism in PCOS is insulin resistance. The frustrating part is that it's a vicious cycle. Insulin resistance leads to increased testosterone production, which, in turn, contributes to unwanted hair growth. To address this, PolyC's helps balance your blood sugar to fight IR and facial hair.
2. Elevated Testosterone Levels: Fueling Unwanted Hair Growthg
High levels of testosterone play a significant role in hirsutism. With hormone balance, PolyC's can help reduce testosterone and the high androgens that cause all the unwanted fuzz!
3. Low Progesterone: A Hormonal Imbalance to Address
Low progesterone levels can contribute to hirsutism in PCOS. Progesterone helps counterbalance the effects of testosterone and supports hormonal balance.
