Hi calgarians,
I'm looking for a naturopath(SP) dr somewhere in the NE. I'm also looking for a good place to go and get waxed.
The reason I'm asking is I'm so embarrassed about going anywhere where they don't know about PCOS. so if someone recommends somewhere then they would kow how to deal with PCOS. I can't keep doing this I'm getting more and more depressed.
Any help or suggestions would be great.

thanks
Shawna

Just wanted to give you a bump & let you know that I discovered a couple of recommendations for naturopaths in Calgary under the Please post your Canadian PCOS friendly Doctor or Alternative Remedy Provider here... Post. As well there was a cyster in this post that seems like she would be happy to share a PCO friendly Naturopath.
Sorry I don't have any recommendations for waxing places since I have only been living here a couple of months now.
Good luck and hopefully someone else will chime in with a recommendation.

I recently heard the staff here is great if you are looking for Naturopath.
Not sure about anyone for waxing but if I hear anything I will let you know.

I have really had good luck with Eletroysis knowing what PCOS but unfortunately my current Electroysis just moved to St. Paul. But how luckier could I get, she also had PCOS. My Electroysis before thta was in Edmonton before I moved back to Calgary and she is actually the one that told me she thought I had PCOS, which started the whole DR. pushing to finding out if I did. Never did Waxing but have seriously considered having my upper thiegh waxed or lazered. Right now I am worring more about the visiable (facial) and Waxing from what I am told can really damage your skin with long term use, so I opted for Electroysis and it works, takes longer because it's a hormone issue, but I found combined Met, Diane 35 (BCP) and Electrysis, it contained and ended my hair growth. Though since I went off Diane 35 to get pregnant hair has started coming back but I still only go back every couple of months for about a 20 minute touch up on my neck and chin.
