Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) is a frustrating condition with which many women struggle. PCOS can lead women to having trouble maintaining a healthy weight, as well as cause hormonal imbalances. Because of this, frequently, women with PCOS have thyroid problems and struggle with infertility. With PCOS often comes insulin resistance – part of the reason women will struggle to lose weight or stay at an ideal body weight.
Dietary strategies may help women combat the negative symptoms associated with PCOS.
- Adopting a whole-foods based diet is one of the best steps you can take to supporting your body while struggling with PCOS.
- A lower carbohydrate diet will likely help women lose weight and combat insulin resistance.
- Women with PCOS often have hormonal imbalances, and dietary strategies can help to balance hormones.
- If someone with PCOS is also experiencing thyroid problems, there are nutritional considerations to help support thyroid health as well.
