How Can Excessive Weight Gain Due To Hormonal Imbalance Be Treated?

Hi my wife has bad hormonal imbalance . She is 36 years old and she is doing a very good healthy program but is not losing weight because of the imbalance. Her thyroid functions are fine so we suspect that her sex hormones, cortisol are all over the place. She gets very bad pms for about 10 days every month with very bad mood, depression, sore breasts for about two weeks . She is frustrated because not losing weight. What do you recommend ? Thanks

Hi, I think you can try some exercise and yoga regularly. Get a blood sugar levels and free and total testosterone checked. She can take some treatment like metformin for reducing weight. She can also try a combination of myoinositol and n acetyl cysteine for improving pcos. She can also try SSRI for her pms. Talk to your doctor regarding this. Hope it helps.
