Treatment Overview
The Weight Stabilization & PCOS Hormonal Balance Program in Korea is a medically supervised program designed to help women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) achieve stable, healthy body weight while restoring hormonal balance. PCOS often leads to weight fluctuations, insulin resistance, and elevated androgens, making long-term weight control challenging.
This program integrates advanced diagnostics, personalized nutrition, hormonal therapy, and lifestyle modification to stabilize weight, regulate metabolism, and improve overall endocrine health. Korean specialists provide an individualized approach to address each patient’s unique hormonal and metabolic profile.
