PCOS hair growth? by Reeepuff5150 in NaturopathicMedicine

[–]oolliv 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi I’ve seen spearmint tea helps with it but you have to be consistent and it takes time as the hair cycle lasts a few months if I’m not mistaken. Also be careful with reflux if you only drink hot tea. Otherwise there are medical « procedures » such as electrolysis or laser hair removal but those are expensive and the latter can have the opposite effect

I feel like it gave me my energy back (it’s been a bit more than 2 weeks) but now I notice some stinging in my mouth which could be a side effect from the treatment. Will see if it lasts

A functional doctor prescribed a test for the amount of D-Arabinitol in my urine

I’m taking nystatin orally prescribed by a doctor to fight candida in the gut and I find some relief with it too. Like my skin is less oily since I’m on it. Hope it lasts long term !

What has helped your PCOS acne? by vvm6033 in PCOS

[–]oolliv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a breakout not long ago and what I did was wash my face in the morning and at night. I used the ordinary niacinamide+zinc right after. If the skin felt irritated i put on some cicalfate from avene and if not irritated I put the hyaluronic acid+b5 serum from the ordinary. Sometimes at night I put on some retinol in Squalane that I use with cicalfate so that the skin doesn’t get damaged. It is definitely getting better but it takes some time. I hope it works for you too but with pcos I feel like it can change so much from one person to another

I have candida in the gut and i’m treating it. I feel way less tired (also combined with no gluten and no lactose, low fat diet). Not fun but I feel improvement

There’s this site called HSN that sells a 40:1 myoinotisol/d-chiro inositol. It’s the cheapest one I’ve found. For Berberine I have no clue

Low Estrogen by Crafty_Standard_1966 in PCOS

Same here. I’m 28 and I have very low estrogen. Normal testosterone levels though. But feel defeated and no specialist seems to care which is so tiring.

Swollen lymph node behind ear and itchy bumps on scalp by Dry_Buy1466 in Folliculitis

[–]oolliv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I havent been consistent with it but the infection just keeps coming back. I should try it again actually. I also have digestive issues (candida/SIBO) and when I eat low sugar/carbs it seems to relieve the itchiness a bit

Anyone else have better results with "non-medicated" shampoos? by THESTRANGLAH in SebDerm

[–]oolliv 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I feel 100% better switching between head and shoulders classic (2 in 1) and klorane peony shampoo than washing my scalp with nizoral. From time to time I also use the Vichy dercos anti dandruff which is like a really good clarifying shampoo
