Inositol – The 1️⃣ Ovary Vitamin⁠
.⁠
🔎 If you’ve searched “supplements for PCOS or fertility” you’ve probably come across inositol.⁠
.⁠
It’s arguably the most well-researched supplement for women’s reproductive health these days.💥⁠
.⁠
What is inositol and how does it relate to PCOS?🤔⁠
.⁠
It is a natural sugar alcohol that plays many important roles in your body, such as regulating neurotransmitters and hormones.⁠
.⁠
🔑 For #PCOS and ovarian health, inositol is key.⁠
.⁠
It improves all aspects of PCOS, starting with insulin resistance.✅⁠
.⁠
Most women with PCOS have some degree of insulin resistance as part of this complex endocrine and metabolic disorder.⁠
.⁠
Reversing insulin resistance is paramount to reversing PCOS. Inositol has been shown to work as well as Metformin in this regard, without the side effects.🙌🏽⁠
.⁠
It’s documented to:⁠
✅ improve insulin sensitivity⁠
✅ lower triglycerides and blood pressure⁠
✅ increase HDL (“good” cholesterol)⁠
.⁠
What else can inositol do for PCOS?⁠
.⁠
Women with PCOS often have high androgens (“male” hormones) and low sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) which binds to androgens to lower excess amounts. Inositol both lowers androgens and raises SHBG, a win-win for PCOS.⁠
.⁠
PCOS involves disruptions in how the ovaries mature and release eggs from follicles (ovulate). Ovaries have a high need for inositol. This is because they need to uptake a lot of glucose, in order to meet their high-energy requirements.⁠
.⁠
In your ovaries, inositol:⁠
✅ Controls the uptake of glucose⁠
✅ Helps your ovary respond to follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) for egg maturation⁠
✅ Raises estrogen levels in the ovary, which helps your LH surge – needed for ovulation to happen⁠
✅ Determines how much testosterone is produced⁠
.⁠
.⁠
Inositol is good for egg quality, ovarian response to FSH and LH, insulin sensitivity, ovulation, regular cycles, anxiety, and better SHBG and testosterone levels in PCOS.⁠
