We are excited to announce that our very own Jessica Ray, Pelvic Pain Specialist in New Jersey, has been featured for First For Women, where she shared her expert insights on Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) and a common symptom often referred to as “PCOS belly.”
PCOS affects up to 1 in 10 women of reproductive age, and its symptoms can be complex, impacting not only fertility but also weight gain and body shape. In her feature, Jessica Ray broke down the causes behind “PCOS belly,” which often leads to bloating and weight gain concentrated in the lower abdomen.
As Jessica explained, this type of weight gain is largely driven by hormonal imbalances, especially the higher-than-normal levels of androgens and insulin resistance commonly seen in PCOS patients.
She emphasized the importance of addressing these symptoms with a combination of personalized treatments that tackle both the hormonal imbalances and the underlying metabolic issues. Jessica’s approach involves a holistic, patient-centered plan that might include dietary adjustments, physical therapy, and targeted medication to help women regain control of their health and confidence.
Ray’s feature in First For Women highlights her commitment to improving the lives of women suffering from PCOS and pelvic pain. With experience treating complex conditions like pain PCOS-related pain, endometriosis, and pelvic floor dysfunction, Jessica Ray is dedicated to providing compassionate care that addresses both the symptoms and the root causes of pelvic pain.
