Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is a complex and multifaceted condition that affects many women of reproductive age. Characterised by hormonal imbalances, irregular menstrual cycles, and metabolic issues, PCOS can significantly impact a woman’s quality of life.
While conventional treatments often focus on symptom management, a naturopathic approach aims to address the root causes and promote overall wellness.
As a naturopathic nutritional therapist, I offer a comprehensive and individualised approach to support women with PCOS through diet, lifestyle, and natural therapies.

Here’s how I can help:
Understanding PCOS and Its Triggers
PCOS is influenced by a combination of genetic, hormonal, and environmental factors. Key features of PCOS include insulin resistance, inflammation, and elevated androgen levels. Addressing these underlying issues is crucial for effective management. Naturopathic nutritional therapy focuses on creating a balanced and supportive environment for the body to restore hormonal harmony.
Personalised Nutrition Plans
Every woman with PCOS is unique, and so is her experience with the condition. I create personalised nutrition plans tailored to your specific needs, focusing on:
Blood Sugar Balance: Incorporating low glycemic index foods to stabilise blood sugar levels and reduce insulin resistance. This includes plenty of vegetables, whole grains, lean proteins, and healthy fats.
Anti-Inflammatory Foods: Including foods rich in antioxidants and omega-3 fatty acids, such as berries, leafy greens, nuts, seeds, and fatty fish, to combat inflammation.
Hormone-Balancing Foods: Adding foods that support hormonal balance, such as cruciferous vegetables (broccoli, cauliflower, Brussels sprouts), flaxseeds, and legumes.
Supporting Gut Health
Gut health is integral to overall hormonal balance. A healthy gut microbiome can influence insulin sensitivity and inflammation, both of which are crucial in managing PCOS. I provide guidance on:
Probiotics and Prebiotics: Introducing beneficial bacteria through fermented foods like yogurt, kefir, sauerkraut, and prebiotic fibers to nourish these bacteria.
Digestive Support: Recommending digestive enzymes and other supplements to improve nutrient absorption and support gut health.
Hormonal Balance
Balancing hormones is a key goal in managing PCOS. Through dietary and lifestyle interventions, I help support your hormonal health:
Phytoestrogens: Incorporating foods like soy, flaxseeds, and legumes that can help balance estrogen levels.
Detoxification Support: Promoting liver health to aid in the efficient breakdown and elimination of excess hormones.
Lifestyle Modifications
Beyond diet, lifestyle factors play a significant role in managing PCOS. I provide comprehensive advice on:
Stress Management: Techniques such as mindfulness, yoga, and meditation to reduce stress, which can exacerbate hormonal imbalances.
Exercise: Tailoring an exercise routine that supports overall health without overburdening the body. Regular physical activity can help improve insulin sensitivity and support weight management.
Sleep Hygiene: Ensuring adequate and restful sleep to aid in hormonal regulation and overall well-being.
Nutritional Supplementation
Targeted supplementation can provide additional support in managing PCOS. Based on individual needs.
Functional Medicine Testing
To gain a comprehensive understanding of your condition, functional medicine testing may be beneficial. Tests can include:
Hormone Panels: To assess hormonal imbalances.
Nutrient Deficiencies: Identifying any gaps in your nutrition that need addressing.
Gut Health Analysis: Evaluating the state of your gut microbiome and identifying any imbalances or infections.
Empowering Education
My goal is to empower you with knowledge and tools to take control of your health. Through one-on-one consultations, educational resources, and ongoing support, I help you understand your condition and make informed choices that promote wellness.
