Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS): Comprehensive, Compassionate Care for Women’s Hormonal Health


Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is a common, yet often misunderstood hormonal disorder affecting up to 1 in 10 women of reproductive age. It’s not just a condition that impacts fertility—it influences a woman’s entire health, from metabolic function and mental well-being to cardiovascular risk and quality of life.

At Premium Healthcare, we’re committed to providing compassionate, evidence-based care for women with PCOS in Miami and South Florida. Our multispecialty approach means you get coordinated support from endocrinologists, gynecologists, nutritionists, and mental health professionals—so your care is never fragmented, and your concerns are never overlooked.

What Is PCOS?

Polycystic Ovary Syndrome is a complex endocrine disorder characterized by hormonal imbalances that interfere with normal ovarian function. The name comes from the presence of multiple small cysts on the ovaries, but not all women with PCOS have these cysts.

PCOS is typically diagnosed when at least two of the following are present:

  • Irregular or absent menstrual cycles 
  • Excess androgen (male hormone) levels, leading to symptoms like acne or unwanted hair growth 
  • Polycystic ovaries on ultrasound (enlarged ovaries with many small follicles) 

Though it often begins in adolescence, PCOS can persist well into adulthood—and its effects can go far beyond reproductive health.

Common Symptoms of PCOS

PCOS presents differently in every woman. Some may struggle with menstrual irregularity and infertility, while others may notice changes in weight, skin, or mood.

Typical symptoms include:

  • Irregular periods or missed periods 
  • Difficulty getting pregnant 
  • Excess facial or body hair (hirsutism) 
  • Persistent acne or oily skin 
  • Scalp hair thinning (female-pattern hair loss) 
  • Weight gain or difficulty losing weight 
  • Darkened patches of skin (especially around the neck or underarms) 
  • Mood swings, anxiety, or depression 
  • Fatigue and poor sleep 

Not all symptoms appear in every case. A thorough evaluation is necessary to understand the full impact of the condition on your body.

Long-Term Health Risks Associated With PCOS

Without proper management, PCOS can increase the risk of several serious health issues over time:

  • Type 2 diabetes or insulin resistance 
  • High cholesterol and hypertension 
  • Obstructive sleep apnea 
  • Endometrial cancer (from irregular periods or lack of ovulation) 
  • Heart disease and stroke risk 
  • Pregnancy complications such as gestational diabetes or preeclampsia 

At Premium Healthcare, we focus not just on symptom relief—but also on preventing these long-term complications through proactive, personalized care.

Diagnosing PCOS at Premium Healthcare

There’s no single test for PCOS, which is why a full clinical evaluation is essential. Our team offers:

  • Detailed medical and menstrual history review 
  • Physical examination to assess signs of androgen excess and insulin resistance 
  • Hormone testing (LH, FSH, testosterone, DHEA-S, prolactin, TSH) 
  • Fasting glucose and insulin levels 
  • Pelvic ultrasound to examine ovaries and uterine lining 
  • Metabolic screenings (cholesterol, triglycerides, A1C) 

This comprehensive workup helps us rule out other causes and create an accurate diagnosis, so we can develop the most effective treatment plan for your needs.

Personalized PCOS Treatment Plans

At Premium Healthcare, we understand that PCOS treatment must be tailored to your individual symptoms, health goals, and lifestyle. Our multidisciplinary approach includes:

1. Lifestyle and Nutritional Counseling

A healthy lifestyle can significantly reduce PCOS symptoms. We support you with:

  • Customized nutrition plans focusing on anti-inflammatory, low-glycemic foods 
  • Exercise recommendations for improving insulin sensitivity and mood 
  • Weight management strategies for sustainable results, not quick fixes 

Even a modest weight loss of 5–10% can improve hormone levels and menstrual function in many patients.

2. Hormonal Regulation

We may recommend medications to help restore hormonal balance:

  • Oral contraceptives to regulate periods and reduce androgen levels 
  • Anti-androgens (like spironolactone) for acne or hair growth 
  • Progesterone therapy to prevent endometrial overgrowth 
  • Metformin to improve insulin resistance and regulate cycles 

Our physicians monitor these treatments closely and adjust as your needs evolve.

3. Fertility Support

If pregnancy is a goal, we offer:

  • Ovulation tracking and induction with medications like letrozole or clomiphene 
  • Referral to fertility specialists when advanced treatments are needed 
  • Preconception care to optimize overall health before trying to conceive 

We walk with you through every step of your reproductive journey.

4. Mental Health and Emotional Support

PCOS can take a toll on emotional well-being. We provide:

  • On-site counseling or referrals for anxiety, depression, and body image concerns 
  • Mindfulness and stress reduction strategies 
  • Support groups or therapy for chronic condition management 

You’re not alone—emotional support is a vital part of PCOS care.
