Suggest Remedies For Hormonal Imbalance Causing Bloating And Irregular Periods
I have been diagnosed with polycystic overies not syndrome hormone levels were normal but I have severe abdominal swelling with pain and discomfort. I have been put on desogestrel to stop my periods as they were very irregular between 3 and 8 weeks apart. I am always tired even though I eat a balanced diet. I went through a peri menopause and about a year ago and I m only 37 and still get mild hot flushes at night my mum was 40 when she started her menopause which was severe. Would you suggest going back to my doctor to retest my hormone levels and any advice on the bloating as my belly feels hard swollen and painful to the point I look 5 months pregnant. My partner had the snip so no chance of that.
Polycystic ovaries should be treated with hormones in order to regularize your menstrual cycle. Desogesterol is a synthetic form of progesterone hormone useful in this condition. Abnormal weight gain should be taken care of.If pregnancy is desired, drugs that induce ovulation can also be taken as directed by your physician. So after completing 2 to 3 cycles of desogesterol, kindly visit your physician for further management.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Dr. Saranya Ramadoss, General & Family Physician
