Navigating PCOS with Confidence: Expert care for balance, fertility, and long-term health.
PCOS isn’t one-size-fits-all. At our Holmby Hills private practice, you meet directly with Joseph Roofeh, MD for clear diagnosis and a plan tailored to your goals cycle regularity, fertility, symptom relief, and long-term metabolic health.
What is PCOS?
Polycystic ovary syndrome is a common hormone condition in reproductive-age patients. It’s typically diagnosed when at least two are present—irregular or absent ovulation, clinical or lab signs of higher androgens, or characteristic ovarian features on ultrasound—after other causes are excluded. Not everyone with PCOS has cysts, and symptoms vary widely from person to person.
PCOS Inflammation Symptoms
- Irregular or missed periods
- Difficulty conceiving or signs of inconsistent ovulation
- Acne or oily skin
- Unwanted hair growth on the face, chest, or abdomen
- Scalp hair thinning
- Weight changes or trouble losing weight
- Insulin resistance or elevated blood sugar
- Darkened skin patches (acanthosis nigricans)
- Pelvic discomfort or bloating near expected cycles
- Fatigue, mood changes, or sleep disturbance
Can you get pregnant with PCOS?
Yes—many people with PCOS do get pregnant. PCOS often disrupts ovulation, but treatments like lifestyle support and ovulation-inducing meds (letrozole is commonly first-line), with IUI/IVF if needed, make conception very achievable. A personalized plan and early monitoring improve odds and safety.

Treatments for PCOS
Exceptional solutions with excellent expected results.
PCOS looks different for everyone, so treatment starts with what you want most—cycle regularity, fertility, symptom relief, or metabolic health—and adjusts over time as needs change.
- Cycle regulation: options to make periods predictable and protect the uterine lining when pregnancy isn’t the goal.
- Ovulation support for pregnancy: evidence-based induction (e.g., first-line oral agents) with ultrasound and labs as needed, plus timing guidance.
- Metabolic care: nutrition and activity coaching, insulin-sensitizing strategies, and cardiometabolic screening to lower long-term risk.
- Skin and hair symptoms: targeted plans for acne, hirsutism, and scalp thinning, with realistic timelines for results.
- Weight management support: practical, sustainable approaches; referrals when additional tools are appropriate.
- Sleep and stress: screening and support for factors that can worsen insulin resistance and symptoms.
- Long-term follow-up: periodic reviews of cycles, labs, and goals, with adjustments as life and priorities evolve.
