A Root-Cause Approach to PMOS with Mosaic Medical

What Is PMOS?

Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PMOS) is a common hormone imbalance that affects ovulation and metabolism. It is the leading cause of infertility in women, yet is often misunderstood and managed in a one-size-fits-all way.

How It Affects People:

PMOS can affect cycles, fertility, skin, mood, and weight. Many women describe years of trial and error, often being told only to “lose weight” or take the contraceptive pill, without deeper investigation into root causes.

Typical Symptoms Include:

Irregular or missed periods
Weight gain or difficulty losing weight
Acne or facial hair growth (hirsutism)
Hair thinning
Fatigue or mood swings
Insulin resistance and links to type 2 diabetes

Conventional treatment usually includes birth control pills, Metformin, or lifestyle advice. While these can help manage some symptoms, they do not address the underlying metabolic and hormonal drivers of PMOS.

Our Functional Medicine Approach

At Mosaic Medical, we explore the root causes of PMOS across hormones, metabolism, and gut health. By addressing imbalances step by step, we help you reduce symptoms and improve fertility, energy, and long-term health.

We investigate:

Tools we use:

Functional lab testing, including bloods and DUTCH testing for detailed hormone pathways
Gut and stool testing where relevant
Personalised nutrition and supplement support
Lifestyle and stress management tailored to hormone balance
Sustainable approaches to weight management (no crash diets)

Safe medical oversight – GMC-registered doctors with the ability to prescribe when needed
Modern support options – for those who choose it, we can support weight management with GLP-1 agonists, or offer natural alternatives
Long-term strategies – focusing on symptom relief and sustainable hormonal health

FAQ – PMOS & Functional Medicine

Is PMOS reversible with functional medicine?

While PMOS itself isn’t technically curable, it is highly manageable. Many women see major improvements in their cycles, weight, mood, and fertility through a root-cause approach.

Do I have to take the contraceptive pill to manage PMOS?

No. The pill can mask symptoms but doesn’t correct underlying imbalances. We offer natural and medical alternatives to help balance hormones more sustainably.

Do you help women with “lean” PMOS?

Yes. Not all PMOS is associated with weight gain. We adapt our approach depending on whether insulin resistance, adrenal issues, or other drivers are present.

What tests do you use for PMOS?

We may use comprehensive blood panels, DUTCH hormone testing, and stool tests to understand hormone metabolism, gut health, and inflammation. We also review any results already available from your GP or gynaecologist.

I have had gender transition and/or do not identify as a woman — can you still help?

Yes. We see everyone as an individual and respect your journey and preferences. A discovery call is the best way to discuss your unique needs.

Do you offer remote consultations?

Yes. We work with patients virtually across the UK and can see you face to face if clinically indicated.

How do appointments work?

Your first appointment is 90 minutes. Your doctor will review your history in advance, and during the consultation we will build a plan together, including decisions about any testing that may help.

Does the appointment price include testing?

No. Testing is separate, and we only recommend tests that will directly change your management plan.

I already have a diagnosis and test results — can you still help?

Yes. You can upload your results before your appointment, and we will review them with you. If there are extensive results, we may charge a small preparation fee, which we will always agree with you first.

How does the nutrition side work?

We provide tailored nutrition advice. For more complex needs, we may recommend you see our nutritional therapist, which can accelerate progress and help you meet your goals more effectively.
