PCOS (Polycystic-ovary syndrome)
Support for patients with PCOS at Eleanor Clinic.
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common condition that often leads to heavy periods, weight gain and acne.
It can lead to difficulties in getting pregnant and increase emotional challenges, like anxiety and depression.
There is good evidence that support from health professionals empowers patients to improve their symptoms.
Here at Eleanor Clinic we support you in a non judgemental way, to be empowered towards achieving your health goals. We are focusing on promoting healthy behaviours rather than emphasising weight loss.
Eleanor Clinic is inviting our patients with PCOS for a specific health assessment. Most patients will be eligible for a bulk billed GP management plan. We will discuss your concerns and symptoms, organise relevant tests and make an individual treatment plan with you.
A GP management plan also gives you access to 5 allied health visits, subsidised by medicare.
If getting more support through; eg. an exercise physiologist, dietician or other health professional would be beneficial, we will organise that for you.
If you think you could have PCOS or already have an established diagnosis, please book in for a GP management plan at Eleanor Clinic. You will be seen by our nurse and your doctor, for a comprehensive plan.
