Can PCOS be managed without long-term medication?

PCOS management depends on a woman's symptoms, age, and whether she is trying to conceive, so the approach is never one size fits all. For many women, lifestyle changes including weight management, regular physical activity, and dietary adjustments meaningfully improve hormonal balance, menstrual regularity, and insulin sensitivity. Medication becomes necessary when lifestyle measures alone are not enough to control symptoms or when fertility treatment is required, and the right combination is something Dr Vineetha Kiran determines through individualised evaluation at Kiran Speciality Hospital, Hassan.
