Immune System Balancing

[McCulley2018, pg 35] reports that PCOS is a TH1-dominant autoimmune disorder, but then [McCulley2018, pp 180, 313-325] states that PCOS is not an autoimmune disorder; he then proposes an approach to treating this disease, which should be supervised by a properly trained medical professional.

Dr. Weyrich has considerable interest in this topic, but has not treated any cases of PCOS with Immune System Balancing.

Please see What is Immune System Balancing? for more information.

[LdnResearchTrust_conditions] reports that PCOS is a condition that LDN could help. Dr. Weyrich has been trained to use Low Dose Naltrexone (LDN). However, Dr. Weyrich has not treated any cases of PCOS with LDN.
