It’s also associated with metabolic disorders like obesity; hirsutism, acne, diabetes, insulin resistance, and glucose intolerance. In addition to lifestyle changes, it can be treated with allopathic, ayurvedic, natural, or herbal treatments.

Different plant species, including Liquorice, Cinnamon, Ginseng Saponin, Flaxseed, Spearmint tea, Danggui, Chaste berries, White peony, and Milk thistle, contain both estrogenic and non estrogenic phytochemicals which are both efficient and safe.
