PCOS Sisters
Weight Loss Clinic in Salt Lake City, Utah
About PCOS Sisters
PCOS Sisters is a specialized healthcare practice in Salt Lake City dedicated to supporting women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome and related hormonal challenges. Our unique approach combines weight loss expertise with comprehensive women's health care, recognizing that PCOS affects far more than just weight. We understand the frustration of trying countless diets and exercise programs that simply don't work when hormonal imbalances are the underlying issue.
Founded by healthcare providers who've personally navigated PCOS challenges, our practice offers both medical expertise and genuine empathy. We know that PCOS affects each woman differently, which is why we take time to understand your specific symptoms, struggles, and goals. Our team includes family practitioners and women's health specialists who work together to address not just weight management, but also fertility concerns, metabolic health, and overall quality of life.
Services Offered
Our comprehensive PCOS and weight management services begin with thorough hormonal assessment and metabolic testing. We provide specialized nutrition counseling that addresses insulin resistance, a key factor in PCOS-related weight gain. Our family practice services ensure continuity of care for your overall health needs, while our gynecological expertise addresses reproductive health concerns that often accompany weight struggles in PCOS patients. We offer medication management for diabetes prevention, fertility support when appropriate, and lifestyle modification programs specifically designed for women with hormonal imbalances. Support groups and educational workshops help you connect with other women facing similar challenges. We also provide family planning services and can coordinate care with fertility specialists when needed. Our integrated approach means you don't need multiple providers - we address your complete health picture in one compassionate, understanding environment.

Comprehensive program addressing insulin resistance, hormonal imbalances, and PCOS-specific weight loss challenges with medical supervision.
Insulin Resistance Treatment
Medication management and lifestyle modification specifically targeting insulin resistance, the root cause of PCOS weight gain.

What to Expect
Your first visit includes comprehensive PCOS assessment, including symptom evaluation, family history review, and discussion of your weight loss history. We perform specialized lab testing to evaluate insulin resistance, hormone levels, and metabolic markers specific to PCOS. Based on these results, we develop a personalized treatment plan that may include medication, targeted nutrition strategies, and lifestyle modifications.
Follow-up appointments occur every 4-6 weeks initially, then quarterly once you're stable. We track not just weight loss, but also improvements in energy, mood, menstrual regularity, and other PCOS symptoms. Our support extends beyond medical treatment to include practical advice for meal planning, exercise modifications, and stress management techniques that work specifically for women with PCOS.
Why Choose PCOS Sisters
What makes PCOS Sisters unique is our singular focus on PCOS and related hormonal conditions. Unlike general weight loss clinics that may not understand the complexities of PCOS, we base our entire practice on this expertise. Our providers have personal experience with PCOS, bringing both professional knowledge and genuine understanding to your care.
We've helped hundreds of women achieve sustainable weight loss despite previous failures with traditional approaches. Our success comes from addressing the root hormonal causes rather than just calories and exercise. We also provide the emotional support and validation that's so important when dealing with a condition that's often misunderstood by others, including some healthcare providers.
Insurance & Pricing
Most major insurance plans cover our medical services including consultations, lab work, and medication management. PCOS is a recognized medical condition, so medically necessary treatments are typically covered. We work with insurance companies to ensure you receive maximum benefits available under your plan.
Cash rates are available for uninsured patients, with sliding scale pricing for those who qualify. Nutrition counseling and some specialized services may require out-of-pocket payment, but we strive to keep costs reasonable. We also help patients apply for pharmaceutical assistance programs when expensive PCOS medications are recommended.
First-Time Patient Tips
Before your first visit, please keep a detailed symptom diary including weight fluctuations, menstrual patterns, energy levels, and mood changes. This information helps us understand your individual PCOS presentation. Bring any previous lab results, especially hormone panels and glucose tolerance tests, as well as a list of supplements or medications you've tried.
Expected lifestyle changes will be gradual and sustainable rather than drastic. We'll work together to identify which modifications are most likely to succeed given your current circumstances. It's important to be patient with the process, as hormonal healing takes time. Most women see some improvement in symptoms within 6-8 weeks, with significant weight loss typically occurring over 3-6 months as hormones stabilize.
