@@sumori9993 most simply you want to completely eliminate processed foods and sugar that doesn't naturally occur in food. Basically lots of fruits and veggies, some protein, no dairy or wheat
@alexishardison3500 n what about white rice n meat from chicken or beef ..... n ofc white flour items must be inclusive n junk food ..... thank you so much for your reply.
I lost body fat, started weight training, and changed my eating habits by increasing protein and ingesting more natural foods. I recently went to a gynecologist for a revision and was told my uterus and ovaries went back to normal. Finally, my period is regular and feeling better
Hi sister .what food u take plz tell me. Last weak I went to hospital she told mild PCOS . She gives 10 tablet for periods .but am not take any tablet .plz tell me what type of food I take. I try pregnancy also plz tell me
@@amma7485 I was also prescribed birth control, but I promise you, those pills will do anything except getting rid of PCOS. Eat more meat, more eggs, dairy, beef and chicken liver, honey and dates. Quit seeds oils (sunflower oil, palm oil, canola oil etc). Replace it with coconut oil, animal fat or butter. Walk more, sleep well and work your muscles. Try supplementing inositol as well if wished.
I have also got pcos, when I didn't had any symptoms bit diagnosed with pcos even tho I have regular periods,and I was conceiveing for a child, then I when to doctor for treatment and she prescribed me med and next month I got a positive result of my pregnancy. May Allah heals everyone whose fighting with pcos and may allah grant child for them whose seeking for it ameen
I am suffering from PCOD and it was back in 2020 when I had my first PCOD but later with a healthy food habit and exercises, my PCOD got controlled without any medications. But last year due to the influence of my “friends” I used to smoke a lot. I could have resisted but I didn’t. I also was stressed due to my exams and jobs. Currently I’m having multiple cysts and I’m under medication. I’m doing yoga everyday. And twice a week I do cardio. I have stopped consuming sugar and dairy products. I drink spearmint tea everyday. Regular sleep is also very important, so ladies don’t stick to your phone late night and get some sleep. Have positive mindset that this is just a phase and it shall pass. I wish speedy recovery to all my fellow PCOD/ PCOS warriors.
From the time I started menstruating, they have always been irregular, at times I go for 5 months , when I see medical help they just give me contraceptives (eg zeinia ) to at least make them start
Omg yes. I conceived, lost weight, got rid of the gut and everything but the hair still grows crazy. Like am I the husband, or is my husband the husband 😂
@Shania S . I shouldn't laugh, but that last part was funny 😂 Congratulations on conceiving and losing the weight! And thank you for that laugh. I needed it.
That’s such a struggle with me too. The hair is no joke. I’ve had jt lasered probably 30 times or more and it’s still there. I started electrolysis yesterday but it’s so expensive
@@almondiefrancis9451 yes it’s insane!! I love laser but it sucks having to periodically keep up with it. I hope you get it! It’s definitely a miracle invention that’s helped my confidence immensely

I've been to the doctor a few times because of PCOS and man the pain is no joke. Some women get no symptoms and others get mild pains, while others can't even move. I've only gone once to the ER because the pain was so bad but after a long time you come up your own routine and treatments that will help ease the pain. Really appreciate the this explanation and animation, I'm always curious about this topic
I also suffer of PCOS and I’ve also encountered this huge pain every time my periods came, couldn’t move and got sick and almost fainted every time, once I also went to the ER because my body was getting numb. At the hospital they told me everything’s alright with me after two hrs of tests and they let me out. I mostly overcame the pain by taking a pill for pains exactly when the pains were starting, eating bananas, and moving something warm on my belly and back. I got pregnant thank God, and I realized that the pain I was having every month was the exact same pain I had before giving birth. After pregnancy my periods don’t pain anymore, they come and if I don’t pay attention I might even not notice.
Working through trauma and PTSD significantly reduced my stress levels and guided me to make better life choices. Intermittent fasting (fasting 16 hours and eating within an 8 hour window) and going plant based almost immediately fixed my PCOS symptoms, reversed my diabetes, improved my joint pain, repaired my unhealthy relationship with food and literally made me feel alive for the first time. After a few months of making these changes I had consistent, less painful, regular periods with no birth control and I was lucky enough to get pregnant with a few months of trying. I had to do my own research and experiment to get to this point because the standard way to manage PCOS wasn’t enough. Being put on birth control and metformin and being told that I needed to lose weight was not helpful. There needs to be an emphasis on mental health help for starters in my opinion. Because when you feel lighter and unburdened mentally it’s easier to make better choices it opens doors to explore natural ways to improve systemic health.
Truth, stress wrecks hormones... But more needs to be done, like low impact exercise, an enjoyment of life... this disease, while appears to have different versions under the same name PCOS, is mitigated by that... Here's all I got otherwise... As a scientist who dabbles in endo, this seems like a promising disease to explore to research. It looks like it maybe cured simply by regulating hormones, so this looks like a fun puzzle to me. Some forms of it seem like it may be cured with proper hormone balancing, lower T, higher E, higher FSH. Zinc raises T, Copper raises E and they compete, so right off the bat, 2 mg Copper and reducing some Zinc from the diet might be a fun thing to explore. I have a subject and she'll listen to me. After that, it's interesting that there's a conflict in normal medical advice with exercising for diabetes, since exercising does raise T. I would think to keep exercising, but there's a small puzzle here. Another thing that may help is straight LSH, to raise ratio of LSH to LH. Lowering prolactin seems like an interesting road. If you take Melatonin for sleep, stop, its bad for you, like taking steroids for testosterone is bad, switch to magnesium. Your body produces Melatonin at night... So if you take something your body produces, its normally a bad idea to sabotage your health... In this case, Melatonin reduces reproductive ability... Taken by males in puberty, stunts their growth downstairs, females in puberty, reduces their ability to have children later in life. You should be taking magnesium at night which makes your body over produce melatonin... Also, take vitamin d+k in small amounts to help your calcium absorption for magnesium is an essential electrolyte yet competes with calcium binding channel. For good bone health, take vitamin d+vitamin K or K2 and calcium each day. It seems like it's more than just one disease lumped with similar similar symptoms according to Rotterdam convention. I have full confidence that I'll be able to find a few novel treatments for PCOS. The degree of their effectiveness, I'm not sure, but I'll stay prayed up. Pray for my research. Pray for all medical researchers for the good of humanity.

I had my first period at 9 and started having problems by the time i was 12. Diagnosed with PCOS at age 17 and today I'm 42. The symptoms are horrible. The visible AND invisible ones. I just had a hysterectomy because of this lifetime problem and waa Diagnosed type 2 diabetes at 33. It's not joke girls, have yourself checked and stay safe. ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Same here. Had my period at 9. Suffering every month. I'm 44 and have gone undiagnosed all this time. I struggled with excess weight and hair in my teenage years and later. Definitely, PCOS can have many repercussions.
I was diagnosed with PCOS at 27 and had a miscarriage at 20 weeks when I was 32 yrs old.menses was irregular,hirsutism,overweight. I tried taking inositol supplement and adjust my diet, workout once a week and I ovulate and had menses.few mths later I was pregnant and now I'm 33 weeks. Inositol help me a lot.
@@shielamaepasoy5142 you can find a great brand called EU natural. They have a supplement called “regulate” and has a 40:1 ratio of myo inositol and D-chiro inositol….hope this helps 🌹
Wonderful explaination. It made me realize how serious pcod can be in our life. I have been diagnoised with pcod when I was in 8th class. I Went to multiple doctors searching for accurate and permanent treatment. No solution for that unless taking Contraceptive pills with multiple side effects like weight gain, hair fall. This syndrome took a toll out of my body. There isnt a minute where I won't get stressed about it. This really affects mentally and physically. I hope another women to not become a victim of this nasty PCOD . Take care women out there 💜
@@bhavyasrig3951 i took medicine from an ayurveda gynaecologist in kerala. My friend from kerala suggested that doctor. She also had pcod and got cured. So i took online consultation and that doc send me medicine through courier
I want to encourage every woman, to lay their hands above their womb and their head and pray in the name of the Lord Jesus over it, that the body operate correctly and to full health. If you believe in miracles and want to try, type amen ! 🙏🏾❤️ I empathise for all women suffering this and going through pain, I pray it goes away and I pray for your strength through it all by God’s grace. You are no less of a woman if you go through this and especially if you struggle with infertility. I cannot imagine how difficult this must be. Thank you for this video, it is very educational so that people will not be ignorant of what some women go through. God bless you all❤
I never realise how pcos would take a toll on a female human body until I was diagnosed this year(2023) on May. My body and my mind has never been the same as before...it can have this much impact on a person with all the stress and anxiety. After going through surgery I am trying to change my lifestyle slowly till I reach that goal of a healthier body and mind..
I have PCOS and I remember how l felt when the doctor toid me it would be hard for me to conceive I now have 4 children very successful pregnancies God blessed me with use of herbs!..
Here, because I was diagnosed with PCOS late 2019....I've been struggling. Having irregular periods or no periods at all. I can miss my period for 90 days and more, only to have it for one day. I have gained so much weight since my diagnoses, yet I am not an ignorant eater nor do I over eat... Nothing seems to help keep the weight off and its been taking a toll on my self confidence, especially when people point it out as if its my fault... PCOS, is literally the worst thing to happen to a woman. From hormonal imbalances, to depressive episodes, changes in the body and just not getting enough information about it... I have discovered a ridiculous amount of hair on my arms, legs and down my spine line on my back, yet I'm losing edges on my head... Not getting started on the ance. Gosh, my acne is so horrible. If its not ance, than its the terrible acne scars... Can we talk about the fact that you get hungry all the time??? Or the amount of abdominal pain you get from day to day activity?? Cramps, leg pain and joint pain from doing stuff around the house??? Insomnia?? The headaches?? bloating? Headaches?? Depression?? I'm tired! 😩😭
@@gulsumhumeyrayldz1425 I'm honestly tired... Because what sucks is that doctors are not that open about it, I feel like they dont have much information about the whole syndrome as a whole. They are quick to push that you use contraceptives... Also, the supplements needed to at least control the symptoms, are so expensive... PCOS is a sickness for a rich people, I can't afford this...
this helps me understand myself more. I was diagnosed at 12 after not having a period for about 2 years(?) I've been on meds to help regulate my cycle since last year I think? After going the exercise/healthy eating route since I was diagnosed. Life has been good, I started working out, cutting back on portions, and all that good stuff! I did have to take my medicine to start this cycle but I know if I keep doing what I'm doing, I won't have to for future cycles :) sending all my love to those with pcos as well, we got this!
My doctor told me to just start walking… i started walking with a friend who loves walking and while talking we ended up walking 10k steps a day. This definitely helped my insulin resistance.. im not as hungry anymore and periods becoming more regular.
@@31072gab no fad diets.. just clean eating, avoiding sugar, fried foods, carbs (in order of importance for me). I dont drink soda at all and advise against it fully! But you have to exercise daily even if its just 20mins skipping rope, walking, dancing, running.. hope that helps.
Ive been a normal weight my whole life. I never needed to lose weight, and I only drink water. I can’t have periods at all without birth control. How does losing weight help so many people get their periods back?
After watching this video i came to realize that how serious this problem is .I was taking it so light but know i am well awared so will take care of mt health ...Thanks for such a wonderful video💖
I was diagnosed with the PCOS by one private clinic gynecologist when she did the ultrasound, after she sent me to run tests. My LH, FSH and Testosterone levels at her clinic are all within the limits, but my Glucose tolerance test showed higher result that she said is the cause for my PCOS and diagnosed me with the diabetes 2, so she prescribed me Glucophage). I did not trust that diagnosis (quite slim, active and healthy eater here) and went for a second opinion to a government hospital where ultrasound and gynecologist were separate doctors where the first one said I don't have PCOS and the second one based on the same images said it's just a cyst after which they directed me to a Diabetes clinic where I did the hb1ac test where the result was 5 (not diabetic nor pre diabetic) who also said I just have a cyst which is not dangerous in my case. I became speechless at the varying results and how easily doctors are willing to just treat people with hormones. I still don't know what I have exactly. I move to a different country soon, hoping to visit other doctors. These sort of experiences make me lose my faith in doctors.
True on one hand and on hte other hand, for your own sake it is good to remember that diagnosis is - in large parts - about "guessing it right". This is not a joke. When they cannot dirctly look into our body, even with the modern immaging possibilities, it's still a lot like guessing work of the detective and trying different medicines in order to confim or rule out suspicions. It doesn't help that all individuals are very different and research of womens health is relatively scarce. Making the "guesses" of our doctors more likely to be less accurate. You can help yourself by joining communities where women speak about their issues and my researching how both cases tend to look in patients. Because if your case is not amongst the "easy guesses", then looking up things for yourself (and remember to be very discerning about it) can help you to a) ask better questions b) know better which symptoms you should definitely mention if you have them c) have more discernment what type of specialist you might be looking for. Wishing you the very very very very best and that things work out. I'm currently trying to find a specialist for my case of adenomyosis with possibly some endometriosis. And for them to help me with the treatment I understood works best for me (and opently discussing the pros and cons of that to further help me with discernment). And won't run me through countless prior steps first that I have already mostly ruled out for myself for very very good reasons that I can explain (if they asked and listened). It doesn't help that the time per patient is usually much too short for doctors to have a real chance to do a good job and have that detailed talk to find more clues.
@@KxNOxUTA thank you Kat for your detailed response. I very much appreciate it and have been looking into this whole issue for over the past year in details and was so freaking scared when she told me I have diabetes 2 which made me paranoid about insulin resistance but I just couldn't believe I had it because there are no other precursors that would lead to that diagnosis except glucose tolerance test which turns out to be less accurate in comparison to hemoglobin test checking red cells in the blood. But still much more to explore with new doctors. Next diagnosis I received was exactly like yours, first gynecologist said it's adenomyosis with possible endometriosis but when I visited government people 1) ultrasound lady told me I don't have that rather a polyp, 2) gynecologist said maybe polyp or maybe adenomyosis and wanted to remove right away surgically via hysterectomy but I hesitated, so I needed to do a pelvis MRT which I also did for clarity and only after that said they finalized it's adenomyosis and so the first gynecologist was right eventually on this one even though wrong on PCOS. And the exact treatment for all they keep claiming is either Visan (progesterone hormone) or Mirena IUD that may disrupt my menstrual cycle for the rest of my life. So they all keep treating the symptoms but not the cause as none of them yet know what are the reasons. My symptoms are: excruciatingly painful menstrual, at times painful intercourse, bloating especially around ovulationand during menstrual, rarely orange and slightly bloody discharge. Let me know if any of these symptoms are matching yours because all of these (I was told by all these doctors) are from adenomyosis. And I found some groups where women discuss this issue but still no progress on my decision on how I want to treat this, because I still want to have kids and hesitant to take any hormones that God knows how it will affect my body. Would love to chat with you more so that we can keep sharing our insights with each other. How can we stay in touch if you don't mind? Thanks again for your message and I wish you as well all the best and the right treatment for you🙏🏻
Strange how you were diagnosed based on just a high glucose level. You need at least 2 symptoms to be diagnosed with pcos. One cyst on the ovary surely wouldn't be enough to diagnose it. Structure of the cystic ovaries cannot be mistaken. I would definitely seek a new doctor. Wishing you luck at finding a better doctor. Some doctors really aren't knowledgeable when it comes to pcos.
I would suggest you to consult Endocrinologist which is hormone specialist...even my gynecologist suggested me this as pcod treatment doesn't come under gynecologists.
I am also an PCOD diseased person. This had distroyed my 9 years of entire life. Those teenagers who enjoying their life with family and friends. Beacuse of only my weight gain I never enjoyed.
the best explanation on internet about right correlation between menstrual cycle and PCOS and insulin resistance , thank you so much for this video it is helping me way more than any textbook that I am referring for my nutrition diploma
I have also PCOS first time when I got to knew it was a very ugly phase but I went through the journey of this disease still constantly fighting as i am a student and have to appear for entrance but in my view it's not only a journey of self care but also self love and i still am having physical issues but emotionally i have in many better and beautiful changes
It actually missed quite a lot like the mechanism of comorbidities other than diabetes and the risks as well as the other variations of how your cycles might be affected.
I have watched several videos from you and realized I haven't subscribed! (I did just now.) Thank you so much for all your work on creating and sharing educational animation of the human body and its functions. I enjoy your videos!
Thank u so much very well explained..👍. fixing Pcos is all abt lifestyle changes...nd it's not easy at all.... sometimes it makes u feel less of a women.I can relate to all those who r dealing with pcos just stay optimistic no matter what ... Nd never give up we all r fighters nd our struggle is not easy🙏
I was "diagnosed" with PCOS at around age 18. Starting from about age 12 my period pains had become unbearable and painkillers showed little to no effect. Other women doctors said my cycle was normal for years before I was finally diagnosed so the first 2-3 days of my menstrual cycle would be torture😓😫. My iron deficiency had also returned and at an alarming rate that my doctor was surprised I could even walk. I can due to the increase in testosterone balancing those low iron levels apparently. I was prescribed iron powder and progesterone tablets that I can take orally and since then managing my symptoms has become easier. I have followup visits with this doctor every six months which also include an infusion with additional iron delivered directly into my bloodstream. Menstrual cycle is still tough for me but I'm doing better than I used to. Painkillers were also finally working better😊
I missed my periods for 4 months back in 2020. I even tested but it came with a 'PCOS negative'. I was relieved. But then things came back to normal. Again I'm suffering from irregular periods. I haven't menstruated for 2 months now. Plus, I'm suddenly suffering from mild constipation these days. I have changed my diet, plus drinking lots and lots of water. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. I'm also having left lower back cramps, and sometimes I feel like I'm about to menstruate. But sadly, I don't. Thinking about all these gives me anxiety. I'm trying hard not to overthink.
Try to quit dairy and gluten for a few weeks and include more proteins. See if it helps. Do not overthink much, focus more on what you CAN do rather than feeling anxious about what you cannot do to improve your health. All the best. 💜
I had irregular period for years...and accidentally discovered that a teaspoon of organic cold pressed extra virgin coconut oil in my oats every morning was what fixed it. I don't take it anymore but still my period has been regular for the past few years. I read that coconut oil helps to balance hormones so maybe that was what helped me.
i was diagnosed with PCOS last year at 20, and the doctor said i have 12 cyst in me, and i have imbalance hormones, so they give me medicines that will be able to help me, and seeing this video made me understand more about my PCOS.
I have PCOS, and ive had irregular periods for 3 years. I recently started going to the gym about 3 times a week, doing light excersie such as using the treadmill and Yoda. My period has now come on consistently for 3 months.
I got my first period when i was 9yrs. Then i never had until 13yrs and even after it was so irregular, typically no blood flow for years. For now i havent had periods for nearly 6 months. I have hair loss, hirsutism and acne too. Worst part is the mood swings that occur frequently. Just got through a depressive episode. This is draining at times.
My cousin and her mom’s side of the family have PCOS and she would have more pain on her periods so she ate chocolate and has a heating pad to help with her pain I am also thankful that I just have normal periods and sometimes I will have cramps on my period but it wouldn’t really hurt that much but I am always here to support her. 😊
I really like how you explained what was going on and then added a solution that could help. I've seen a lot of videos that don't add advice that could help someone with issues like this.
I am sooo sick of having PCOS. My husband could give two craps if I stand naked in front of him and doesnt even seem to notice or care and thinks I'm gross cause I'm fat. And on top of it, I am so heavy that a friend offered an egg to help and my fertility specialist said due to my size, they can't safely give me the anthestia to do the procedure unless I got to 225lbs or less, which is impossible as I'm 287 and cant lose weight to save my life, and it would cost us $7500 for the whole thing. So basically, babies are for rich, thin people! I can't adopt as I dont have a spare $20,000+ laying around. And I don't wanna foster a baby as I don't wanna give them back! This makes me so fking angry that a basic human right has conditions in so many ways!
Please don’t loose hope. I have it since I was 11. I was overweight that time. Everyone use to make fun of me. Then all of a sudden I became fitness freak. I started doing basic yoga, exercise, running and dancing. I was on diet for few months. I used to walk a lot. I only used you tube videos for gaining motivation. And I did loose a lot of weight. P.S my periods are still irregular. I don’t know what to do. It affects mentally and physically but all we have to do is to take care of ourselves. Good diet and lifestyle. It will go away one day.
Im on hospital bed now post surgery of ovarian torsion due to pcod.. request all to kindly work pcod off at whatever stage you are , because it only gets worse with time without strict interventions to reverse it
Consistent Exercise really seems to help my pain and mood … the cravings I still struggle with especially during luteal phase … pcos is no joke and it’s sorta a invisible disease most people won’t know you have it and are struggling
Hi Thank you for the education I would really appreciate it if you can make a video on endometriosis I need deeper understanding of that condition Thank you
I NO LONGER HAVE PCOS. I had chronic, severe PCOS, multiple cysts on both ovaries, an enlarged right ovary, prediabetes, insulin resistance, brain fog and very poor eyesight. I would haemorrhage terribly for up to 5 months, thick, heavy blood clots, and the gynecologists would be clueless on how to stop the bleeding and end my pain. I am currently 2 years and exactly 5 months completely healed. All the cysts have disappeared, my right and left ovary are exactly the same size (the sonographers say they've never seen anyone with 2 ovaries the exact same size), my insulin is completely normal and I eat whatever I like. PCOS may be chronic and incurable to men. But not to God. Jesus completely healed me in March 2021. I was never able to ovulate during the 15 years I suffered from PCOS, no matter the medications and hormone therapy I was given. Since I got healed, I effortlessly ovulate every month. My periods are regular and I don't have those crazy migraines, hair loss or depressive episodes anymore.
I want to see a video about hyperovulation. I thought my PCOS would cause me to have trouble getting pregnant, but it caused me to hyperovulate and have twins
(i request to plz read it till end) I had pcod n one of the major things i got to know abt it is it is curable but can come back that is it won't go fully but keeping good amount of exercises will be very helpful ,my sleep schedule is ruined and it is leading to obesity and as the video said facial growth with acne ,i had cured it but again having same problem,i am going to change my schedule and plz girls with these symptoms should have a better living schedule as it will make u sick purely,i am going through it and it is very very difficult for me to regain my body strength as i am obese and my hairs are falling more and more day by day i use to had a large volume of hairs but now it's all gone, i made mistake and trying to get back,plz get back to ur nicest schedule asap as it will help u more,i wrote all this abt me just to warn n tell plz take care of urself,last thing to add plz cutoff sugar content and lower the intake of potato,rice and junk food keep them as low as possible
I know that it isn't easy having pcos but I believe praying and placing your trust in God and practsing a healthy lifestyle is the cure for this disease.
I also think like this why God chose me for thisss.......but everything is happen for a reason...... don't be sad u will definitely become mother one day......their r many women I see getting pregnant nd have a beautiful baby.....just do yoga and diet it will definitely work for u to become mother
I think I've been misdiagnosed 😢 in 2022 I was told my right ovary is polycystic and the size of a golf ball, which is why I've had unexplained weight gain. But my periods come every 14-19 days! I have no hirsutism or acne, the pain is there all the time and feels 'spiky', no male pattern baldness, my IR tests were perfect, etc. No idea what's going on. Having a laparoscopy Monday to find out🤞🏻
I have also got pcom I requested to all doctors and scientists discover something new medicine or injection that helps to cure pcod permanently I'm gonna irritate 😢😢😢
I lost 25 pounds with Wegovy in 5 months and my period came back after the first two months. This has been the only thing to help me in my 24 years of living.
The explanation of PCOS was great. But “birth control pills can help cause regular periods” is false, completely. If we know that the lack of progesterone is from an impaired feedback loop, with GnRH in consistent production, causing excess immature follicles and failed ovulations, then how would giving a synthetic progesterone help the root cause? Placing a pretend progesterone in the body would not realign the cycle, it would only make it ‘seem’ like all hormones are present. On top of that, bleeds that occur during birth control, are not periods. How could they be? A period is the sloughing of the endometrium and disintegrated ovum - I.e. the follow-up of an ovulation that was not met with fertilization. We established that in PCOS, there is no ovulation. So how could a birth control pill suddenly induce a period if it wasn’t even able to induce ovulation? The bleed that happens during birth control is a ‘withdrawal bleed’. It is excess hormones built up tissue that leaves the body.
@@florenceachiaa7481 you’d want to focus on balancing your hormones; remember that a good cycle of hormones is not that each hormone is in high amounts, but that they act like a teeter-totter, some go up and some go down, to create a cyclical harmony. To achieve this, you’d want to create a routine that follows the month, each part of the routine would focus on supporting that specific portion of the monthly cycle. If you look up some videos on “cycle syncing”, you’ll find the ways that you would coordinate your lifestyle (type of workout, food, mental support) to the current phase you’re in. Those phases being: menstrual, follicular, ovulating and luteal. The cycle syncing videos should mention how you would map out the phases and learn to identify which one you’re in. If you don’t currently have a period, you would use the moon phases as a guide until your lifestyle changes naturally being your period back. (This is because the moon phases are monthly, just like your reproductive cycle, so it’s a blueprint you can follow to create a sense of time and routine. The new moon being day 1 of your “period”, and the full moon being your day of “ovulation” and the day before the next new moon being your last day of that cycle. Then start over with the following new moon.) sounds weird I know, but it’s an effective way to train your body into a cyclical routine, just until you period returns and voila, you use your actual period to identify your phases. It sounds like a lot but I promise it’s not. I did it, and I’ve never used birth control. You got this! Your body wants to find balance, it just needs some support.

I feel like a women is likely to get pcos if her mother or father has daibeties. And she is likely to get pcod if its generation (runs in the family). Stress is something we can't escape from,but its important to detox our minds once in a yr/6 mnths. Sleep and exercise can 70% reduce chances of pcos. I was happy when they mentioned in the video its not a disease,which is very true. The video is informative and exact. Everyone suffering from this condition must watch this video.
Which treatment. Please give me information. I am all so suffering for pcos irregular period i take treatment 1 year but again same issue. Present i take 21 days tablets
The explenation was very useful. The animation needs some working - please be mindful of sexistic animation of women. It's very male gaze heavy and that hip to tiny waist to big breast ratio with defined abs is not normal nor health relevant. A woman with child looking like that and being out with such clothes is also very unlikely and goes way too eaily towards body shaming of women and especially women post child birth. - it would have been good to add that the fallopian tube actively picks up the egg. Other than that, the animation of period bleeding looks like all cleanly sloshes out in a huge red flurry. And that's not how that works. So it would be helpful if the animation there would not feed into such misunderstanding. Again, the health relevan infornation is very appreciated. It'll be more helpful without the negative side effects above.
Your videos are very informative, thank you. I hope you will also include about menorrhagia, or menstruation irregularities, and dysmenorrhea - I will be so looking forward to it.
I changed my diet to plant base food, barley grass juice everyday, NO sodas, NO COFFEE, NO SALTY food, LESS Sweets/carbs. Went to my OB for ultrasound, PCOS are gone.
No salty food mean no salt added in food
Could you list a few things specifically you added to diet
@@sumori9993 most simply you want to completely eliminate processed foods and sugar that doesn't naturally occur in food. Basically lots of fruits and veggies, some protein, no dairy or wheat
@alexishardison3500 n what about white rice n meat from chicken or beef ..... n ofc white flour items must be inclusive n junk food ..... thank you so much for your reply.
@@ExceptionalLex I really wanna get rid of this pcos
I lost body fat, started weight training, and changed my eating habits by increasing protein and ingesting more natural foods. I recently went to a gynecologist for a revision and was told my uterus and ovaries went back to normal. Finally, my period is regular and feeling better
Hi sister .what food u take plz tell me. Last weak I went to hospital she told mild PCOS . She gives 10 tablet for periods .but am not take any tablet .plz tell me what type of food I take. I try pregnancy also plz tell me
@@amma7485 I was also prescribed birth control, but I promise you, those pills will do anything except getting rid of PCOS. Eat more meat, more eggs, dairy, beef and chicken liver, honey and dates. Quit seeds oils (sunflower oil, palm oil, canola oil etc). Replace it with coconut oil, animal fat or butter. Walk more, sleep well and work your muscles. Try supplementing inositol as well if wished.
Hey, do you mind sharing with me some of the food you eat?
Hi
It’s really that simple, I got metformin to help my appetite
I have also got pcos, when I didn't had any symptoms bit diagnosed with pcos even tho I have regular periods,and I was conceiveing for a child, then I when to doctor for treatment and she prescribed me med and next month I got a positive result of my pregnancy.

I am suffering from PCOD and it was back in 2020 when I had my first PCOD but later with a healthy food habit and exercises, my PCOD got controlled without any medications. But last year due to the influence of my “friends” I used to smoke a lot. I could have resisted but I didn’t. I also was stressed due to my exams and jobs. Currently I’m having multiple cysts and I’m under medication. I’m doing yoga everyday. And twice a week I do cardio. I have stopped consuming sugar and dairy products. I drink spearmint tea everyday. Regular sleep is also very important, so ladies don’t stick to your phone late night and get some sleep. Have positive mindset that this is just a phase and it shall pass.
I wish speedy recovery to all my fellow PCOD/ PCOS warriors.
You drink milk ,curd any dairy products or not
From the time I started menstruating, they have always been irregular, at times I go for 5 months , when I see medical help they just give me contraceptives (eg zeinia ) to at least make them start
Dealing with symptoms of PCOS, such as Hirsutism, is extremely hard and emotionally draining 😞
Omg yes. I conceived, lost weight, got rid of the gut and everything but the hair still grows crazy. Like am I the husband, or is my husband the husband 😂
@Shania S . I shouldn't laugh, but that last part was funny 😂 Congratulations on conceiving and losing the weight! And thank you for that laugh. I needed it.

I've been to the doctor a few times because of PCOS and man the pain is no joke. Some women get no symptoms and others get mild pains, while others can't even move. I've only gone once to the ER because the pain was so bad but after a long time you come up your own routine and treatments that will help ease the pain. Really appreciate the this explanation and animation, I'm always curious about this topic
Always seek for doctor help when you encounter such pain again
I also suffer of PCOS and I’ve also encountered this huge pain every time my periods came, couldn’t move and got sick and almost fainted every time, once I also went to the ER because my body was getting numb. At the hospital they told me everything’s alright with me after two hrs of tests and they let me out. I mostly overcame the pain by taking a pill for pains exactly when the pains were starting, eating bananas, and moving something warm on my belly and back.
I got pregnant thank God, and I realized that the pain I was having every month was the exact same pain I had before giving birth. After pregnancy my periods don’t pain anymore, they come and if I don’t pay attention I might even not notice.
Huge Respect to all the women out there!
Working through trauma and PTSD significantly reduced my stress levels and guided me to make better life choices. Intermittent fasting (fasting 16 hours and eating within an 8 hour window) and going plant based almost immediately fixed my PCOS symptoms, reversed my diabetes, improved my joint pain, repaired my unhealthy relationship with food and literally made me feel alive for the first time. After a few months of making these changes I had consistent, less painful, regular periods with no birth control and I was lucky enough to get pregnant with a few months of trying. I had to do my own research and experiment to get to this point because the standard way to manage PCOS wasn’t enough. Being put on birth control and metformin and being told that I needed to lose weight was not helpful. There needs to be an emphasis on mental health help for starters in my opinion. Because when you feel lighter and unburdened mentally it’s easier to make better choices it opens doors to explore natural ways to improve systemic health.
Truth, stress wrecks hormones... But more needs to be done, like low impact exercise, an enjoyment of life... this disease, while appears to have different versions under the same name PCOS, is mitigated by that... Here's all I got otherwise...
As a scientist who dabbles in endo, this seems like a promising disease to explore to research. It looks like it maybe cured simply by regulating hormones, so this looks like a fun puzzle to me.
Some forms of it seem like it may be cured with proper hormone balancing, lower T, higher E, higher FSH.
Zinc raises T, Copper raises E and they compete, so right off the bat, 2 mg Copper and reducing some Zinc from the diet might be a fun thing to explore. I have a subject and she'll listen to me.
After that, it's interesting that there's a conflict in normal medical advice with exercising for diabetes, since exercising does raise T. I would think to keep exercising, but there's a small puzzle here.
Another thing that may help is straight LSH, to raise ratio of LSH to LH.
Lowering prolactin seems like an interesting road.
If you take Melatonin for sleep, stop, its bad for you, like taking steroids for testosterone is bad, switch to magnesium. Your body produces Melatonin at night... So if you take something your body produces, its normally a bad idea to sabotage your health... In this case, Melatonin reduces reproductive ability... Taken by males in puberty, stunts their growth downstairs, females in puberty, reduces their ability to have children later in life. You should be taking magnesium at night which makes your body over produce melatonin... Also, take vitamin d+k in small amounts to help your calcium absorption for magnesium is an essential electrolyte yet competes with calcium binding channel. For good bone health, take vitamin d+vitamin K or K2 and calcium each day.
It seems like it's more than just one disease lumped with similar similar symptoms according to Rotterdam convention.
I have full confidence that I'll be able to find a few novel treatments for PCOS. The degree of their effectiveness, I'm not sure, but I'll stay prayed up. Pray for my research. Pray for all medical researchers for the good of humanity.

I had my first period at 9 and started having problems by the time i was 12. Diagnosed with PCOS at age 17 and today I'm 42. The symptoms are horrible. The visible AND invisible ones.

Wonderful explaination. It made me realize how serious pcod can be in our life. I have been diagnoised with pcod when I was in 8th class. I Went to multiple doctors searching for accurate and permanent treatment. No solution for that unless taking Contraceptive pills with multiple side effects like weight gain, hair fall. This syndrome took a toll out of my body. There isnt a minute where I won't get stressed about it. This really affects mentally and physically.

As a medic, all I can say is wow! 💎
I never realise how pcos would take a toll on a female human body until I was diagnosed this year(2023) on May. My body and my mind has never been the same as before...it can have this much impact on a person with all the stress and anxiety. After going through surgery I am trying to change my lifestyle slowly till I reach that goal of a healthier body and mind..
I have PCOS and I remember how l felt when the doctor toid me it would be hard for me to conceive I now have 4 children very successful pregnancies God blessed me with use of herbs!..

Here, because I was diagnosed with PCOS late 2019....I've been struggling. Having irregular periods or no periods at all. I can miss my period for 90 days and more, only to have it for one day. I have gained so much weight since my diagnoses, yet I am not an ignorant eater nor do I over eat... Nothing seems to help keep the weight off and its been taking a toll on my self confidence, especially when people point it out as if its my fault... PCOS, is literally the worst thing to happen to a woman. From hormonal imbalances, to depressive episodes, changes in the body and just not getting enough information about it... I have discovered a ridiculous amount of hair on my arms, legs and down my spine line on my back, yet I'm losing edges on my head... Not getting started on the ance. Gosh, my acne is so horrible. If its not ance, than its the terrible acne scars... Can we talk about the fact that you get hungry all the time??? Or the amount of abdominal pain you get from day to day activity?? Cramps, leg pain and joint pain from doing stuff around the house??? Insomnia?? The headaches?? bloating? Headaches?? Depression?? I'm tired! 😩😭
Same, sister, it feels like I am constantly pushing myself to have a regular life routine while disease-free people just have it.
@@gulsumhumeyrayldz1425 I'm honestly tired... Because what sucks is that doctors are not that open about it, I feel like they dont have much information about the whole syndrome as a whole. They are quick to push that you use contraceptives... Also, the supplements needed to at least control the symptoms, are so expensive... PCOS is a sickness for a rich people, I can't afford this...
same problm .
I can help you
@@srishtychaya5661 how?
The music during normal period explanation is so beautiful and make me feel all the beauty of women nature 😻 just magical
this helps me understand myself more. I was diagnosed at 12 after not having a period for about 2 years(?) I've been on meds to help regulate my cycle since last year I think? After going the exercise/healthy eating route since I was diagnosed. Life has been good, I started working out, cutting back on portions, and all that good stuff! I did have to take my medicine to start this cycle but I know if I keep doing what I'm doing, I won't have to for future cycles :) sending all my love to those with pcos as well, we got this!
My doctor told me to just start walking… i started walking with a friend who loves walking and while talking we ended up walking 10k steps a day. This definitely helped my insulin resistance.. im not as hungry anymore and periods becoming more regular.
Are you currently on a diet? I’m doing exercises once a week, eating more fruits, avoiding sodas but I’m definitely not under a strict diet. Idk
@@31072gab no fad diets.. just clean eating, avoiding sugar, fried foods, carbs (in order of importance for me). I dont drink soda at all and advise against it fully! But you have to exercise daily even if its just 20mins skipping rope, walking, dancing, running.. hope that helps.
Ive been a normal weight my whole life. I never needed to lose weight, and I only drink water. I can’t have periods at all without birth control. How does losing weight help so many people get their periods back?
After watching this video i came to realize that how serious this problem is .I was taking it so light but know i am well awared so will take care of mt health ...Thanks for such a wonderful video💖

Great work by the team❤❤
Every point is so well explained , thank you so much💓
I was diagnosed with the PCOS by one private clinic gynecologist when she did the ultrasound, after she sent me to run tests. My LH, FSH and Testosterone levels at her clinic are all within the limits, but my Glucose tolerance test showed higher result that she said is the cause for my PCOS and diagnosed me with the diabetes 2, so she prescribed me Glucophage). I did not trust that diagnosis (quite slim, active and healthy eater here) and went for a second opinion to a government hospital where ultrasound and gynecologist were separate doctors where the first one said I don't have PCOS and the second one based on the same images said it's just a cyst after which they directed me to a Diabetes clinic where I did the hb1ac test where the result was 5 (not diabetic nor pre diabetic) who also said I just have a cyst which is not dangerous in my case. I became speechless at the varying results and how easily doctors are willing to just treat people with hormones. I still don't know what I have exactly. I move to a different country soon, hoping to visit other doctors. These sort of experiences make me lose my faith in doctors.
True on one hand and on hte other hand, for your own sake it is good to remember that diagnosis is - in large parts - about "guessing it right". This is not a joke. When they cannot dirctly look into our body, even with the modern immaging possibilities, it's still a lot like guessing work of the detective and trying different medicines in order to confim or rule out suspicions.
It doesn't help that all individuals are very different and research of womens health is relatively scarce. Making the "guesses" of our doctors more likely to be less accurate.
You can help yourself by joining communities where women speak about their issues and my researching how both cases tend to look in patients. Because if your case is not amongst the "easy guesses", then looking up things for yourself (and remember to be very discerning about it) can help you to a) ask better questions b) know better which symptoms you should definitely mention if you have them c) have more discernment what type of specialist you might be looking for.
Wishing you the very very very very best and that things work out. I'm currently trying to find a specialist for my case of adenomyosis with possibly some endometriosis. And for them to help me with the treatment I understood works best for me (and opently discussing the pros and cons of that to further help me with discernment). And won't run me through countless prior steps first that I have already mostly ruled out for myself for very very good reasons that I can explain (if they asked and listened).
It doesn't help that the time per patient is usually much too short for doctors to have a real chance to do a good job and have that detailed talk to find more clues.
@@KxNOxUTA thank you Kat for your detailed response. I very much appreciate it and have been looking into this whole issue for over the past year in details and was so freaking scared when she told me I have diabetes 2 which made me paranoid about insulin resistance but I just couldn't believe I had it because there are no other precursors that would lead to that diagnosis except glucose tolerance test which turns out to be less accurate in comparison to hemoglobin test checking red cells in the blood. But still much more to explore with new doctors.
Next diagnosis I received was exactly like yours, first gynecologist said it's adenomyosis with possible endometriosis but when I visited government people 1) ultrasound lady told me I don't have that rather a polyp, 2) gynecologist said maybe polyp or maybe adenomyosis and wanted to remove right away surgically via hysterectomy but I hesitated, so I needed to do a pelvis MRT which I also did for clarity and only after that said they finalized it's adenomyosis and so the first gynecologist was right eventually on this one even though wrong on PCOS. And the exact treatment for all they keep claiming is either Visan (progesterone hormone) or Mirena IUD that may disrupt my menstrual cycle for the rest of my life. So they all keep treating the symptoms but not the cause as none of them yet know what are the reasons.
My symptoms are: excruciatingly painful menstrual, at times painful intercourse, bloating especially around ovulationand during menstrual, rarely orange and slightly bloody discharge. Let me know if any of these symptoms are matching yours because all of these (I was told by all these doctors) are from adenomyosis. And I found some groups where women discuss this issue but still no progress on my decision on how I want to treat this, because I still want to have kids and hesitant to take any hormones that God knows how it will affect my body. Would love to chat with you more so that we can keep sharing our insights with each other. How can we stay in touch if you don't mind? Thanks again for your message and I wish you as well all the best and the right treatment for you🙏🏻
Strange how you were diagnosed based on just a high glucose level. You need at least 2 symptoms to be diagnosed with pcos. One cyst on the ovary surely wouldn't be enough to diagnose it. Structure of the cystic ovaries cannot be mistaken. I would definitely seek a new doctor. Wishing you luck at finding a better doctor. Some doctors really aren't knowledgeable when it comes to pcos.
Right because most doctors don't know what it is.
I would suggest you to consult Endocrinologist which is hormone specialist...even my gynecologist suggested me this as pcod treatment doesn't come under gynecologists.

I was "diagnosed" with PCOS at around age 18. Starting from about age 12 my period pains had become unbearable and painkillers showed little to no effect. Other women doctors said my cycle was normal for years before I was finally diagnosed so the first 2-3 days of my menstrual cycle would be torture😓😫. My iron deficiency had also returned and at an alarming rate that my doctor was surprised I could even walk. I can due to the increase in testosterone balancing those low iron levels apparently. I was prescribed iron powder and progesterone tablets that I can take orally and since then managing my symptoms has become easier. I have followup visits with this doctor every six months which also include an infusion with additional iron delivered directly into my bloodstream. Menstrual cycle is still tough for me but I'm doing better than I used to. Painkillers were also finally working better😊
Try keto
Plz tell me what type of food u taken and . How to reduce weightt

I missed my periods for 4 months back in 2020. I even tested but it came with a 'PCOS negative'. I was relieved. But then things came back to normal. Again I'm suffering from irregular periods. I haven't menstruated for 2 months now. Plus, I'm suddenly suffering from mild constipation these days. I have changed my diet, plus drinking lots and lots of water. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. I'm also having left lower back cramps, and sometimes I feel like I'm about to menstruate. But sadly, I don't. Thinking about all these gives me anxiety. I'm trying hard not to overthink.
Try to quit dairy and gluten for a few weeks and include more proteins. See if it helps. Do not overthink much, focus more on what you CAN do rather than feeling anxious about what you cannot do to improve your health. All the best. 💜
I had irregular period for years...and accidentally discovered that a teaspoon of organic cold pressed extra virgin coconut oil in my oats every morning was what fixed it. I don't take it anymore but still my period has been regular for the past few years. I read that coconut oil helps to balance hormones so maybe that was what helped me.
Me too thinking about periods all the time 😢my friends are having periods not me,it gives anxiety 😢
i was diagnosed with PCOS last year at 20, and the doctor said i have 12 cyst in me, and i have imbalance hormones, so they give me medicines that will be able to help me, and seeing this video made me understand more about my PCOS.
Me too
How is it now? Any better?

I got my first period when i was 9yrs. Then i never had until 13yrs and even after it was so irregular, typically no blood flow for years. For now i havent had periods for nearly 6 months.

I am sooo sick of having PCOS. My husband could give two craps if I stand naked in front of him and doesnt even seem to notice or care and thinks I'm gross cause I'm fat. And on top of it, I am so heavy that a friend offered an egg to help and my fertility specialist said due to my size, they can't safely give me the anthestia to do the procedure unless I got to 225lbs or less, which is impossible as I'm 287 and cant lose weight to save my life, and it would cost us $7500 for the whole thing. So basically, babies are for rich, thin people! I can't adopt as I dont have a spare $20,000+ laying around. And I don't wanna foster a baby as I don't wanna give them back! This makes me so fking angry that a basic human right has conditions in so many ways!
Please don’t loose hope. I have it since I was 11. I was overweight that time. Everyone use to make fun of me. Then all of a sudden I became fitness freak. I started doing basic yoga, exercise, running and dancing. I was on diet for few months. I used to walk a lot. I only used you tube videos for gaining motivation. And I did loose a lot of weight. P.S my periods are still irregular. I don’t know what to do. It affects mentally and physically but all we have to do is to take care of ourselves. Good diet and lifestyle. It will go away one day.
I know exactly what you're going through... My husband is the same, he doesn't understand and only thinks of himself...

Hi
Thank you for the education
I would really appreciate it if you can make a video on endometriosis
I need deeper understanding of that condition
Thank you
Or if you have already could you please share the link here for me
Thank you
Great suggestion!
I NO LONGER HAVE PCOS. I had chronic, severe PCOS, multiple cysts on both ovaries, an enlarged right ovary, prediabetes, insulin resistance, brain fog and very poor eyesight. I would haemorrhage terribly for up to 5 months, thick, heavy blood clots, and the gynecologists would be clueless on how to stop the bleeding and end my pain. I am currently 2 years and exactly 5 months completely healed. All the cysts have disappeared, my right and left ovary are exactly the same size (the sonographers say they've never seen anyone with 2 ovaries the exact same size), my insulin is completely normal and I eat whatever I like.
PCOS may be chronic and incurable to men. But not to God.
Jesus completely healed me in March 2021.
I was never able to ovulate during the 15 years I suffered from PCOS, no matter the medications and hormone therapy I was given.
Since I got healed, I effortlessly ovulate every month. My periods are regular and I don't have those crazy migraines, hair loss or depressive episodes anymore.
AMEN!!! HALLELUJAH JESUS
So you just kept god with you
Amen!! Me too!! He healed me about two years ago Jesus is amazing!
@@Lissagemzz Jesus is the greatest. ❤️❤️
Thank you jesus... I tap into ur testimony😢

THANKYOU, I AM SUFFERING FROM PCOS😊🙏
I know that it isn't easy having pcos but I believe praying and placing your trust in God and practsing a healthy lifestyle is the cure for this disease.
It hurts so bad knowing that I cannot be a mother one day , it just seems like a lot of weirdness I always think why me but I’ll stay optimistic ❤️
I also think like this why God chose me for thisss.......but everything is happen for a reason...... don't be sad u will definitely become mother one day......their r many women I see getting pregnant nd have a beautiful baby.....just do yoga and diet it will definitely work for u to become mother
@@user-dm6dk2uu6q yes indeed god bless you thank you fingers crossed for us both for the right time 🤞🏾🤍
Very good explanation I understand better what I have
Excellent🙏🏻
No one is going to talk about Insulin’s intro? 🔥
I think I've been misdiagnosed 😢 in 2022 I was told my right ovary is polycystic and the size of a golf ball, which is why I've had unexplained weight gain. But my periods come every 14-19 days! I have no hirsutism or acne, the pain is there all the time and feels 'spiky', no male pattern baldness, my IR tests were perfect, etc. No idea what's going on. Having a laparoscopy Monday to find out🤞🏻
Normal girls don't want it ..and we PCOS PCOD ♀️ love it !!! 🥺🥺❤️
...love it?
🙄🙄 love it?
So damn true 😂
Great job, Thank you .
I have PCOS and it has not been easy but I learn to love myself because there things that's out of my control please help us God

Very useful video...thank you so much 🙏
Most welcome 😊
I lost 25 pounds with Wegovy in 5 months and my period came back after the first two months. This has been the only thing to help me in my 24 years of living.
Gd explanation ...i have been diagnosed with pcod ..
Please upload one on infertility
The explanation of PCOS was great. But “birth control pills can help cause regular periods” is false, completely. If we know that the lack of progesterone is from an impaired feedback loop, with GnRH in consistent production, causing excess immature follicles and failed ovulations, then how would giving a synthetic progesterone help the root cause? Placing a pretend progesterone in the body would not realign the cycle, it would only make it ‘seem’ like all hormones are present. On top of that, bleeds that occur during birth control, are not periods. How could they be? A period is the sloughing of the endometrium and disintegrated ovum - I.e. the follow-up of an ovulation that was not met with fertilization. We established that in PCOS, there is no ovulation. So how could a birth control pill suddenly induce a period if it wasn’t even able to induce ovulation? The bleed that happens during birth control is a ‘withdrawal bleed’. It is excess hormones built up tissue that leaves the body.
So what do you suggest be done for regular menses and ovulation
ive heard this aswell you get a fake period. ive been off depo for 3 years now i have been getting a period every month like clock work ever since.
@@florenceachiaa7481 you’d want to focus on balancing your hormones; remember that a good cycle of hormones is not that each hormone is in high amounts, but that they act like a teeter-totter, some go up and some go down, to create a cyclical harmony. To achieve this, you’d want to create a routine that follows the month, each part of the routine would focus on supporting that specific portion of the monthly cycle. If you look up some videos on “cycle syncing”, you’ll find the ways that you would coordinate your lifestyle (type of workout, food, mental support) to the current phase you’re in. Those phases being: menstrual, follicular, ovulating and luteal. The cycle syncing videos should mention how you would map out the phases and learn to identify which one you’re in. If you don’t currently have a period, you would use the moon phases as a guide until your lifestyle changes naturally being your period back. (This is because the moon phases are monthly, just like your reproductive cycle, so it’s a blueprint you can follow to create a sense of time and routine. The new moon being day 1 of your “period”, and the full moon being your day of “ovulation” and the day before the next new moon being your last day of that cycle. Then start over with the following new moon.) sounds weird I know, but it’s an effective way to train your body into a cyclical routine, just until you period returns and voila, you use your actual period to identify your phases. It sounds like a lot but I promise it’s not. I did it, and I’ve never used birth control. You got this! Your body wants to find balance, it just needs some support.
@@sahlkazi3058thanks alot for such an informative comment really answered alot of my questions,btw if you don't mind can I ask if you're a doctor or medical student?
@@zahra.rahman I am a certified functional medicine health coach. :) So not a doctor, but a health coach that uses the functional medicine approach instead of conventional western medicine
I feel like a women is likely to get pcos if her mother or father has daibeties. And she is likely to get pcod if its generation (runs in the family).
Stress is something we can't escape from,but its important to detox our minds once in a yr/6 mnths.
Sleep and exercise can 70% reduce chances of pcos.
I was happy when they mentioned in the video its not a disease,which is very true.
The video is informative and exact. Everyone suffering from this condition must watch this video.
🙏🏻🙏🏻
Hirsutism is the most sucking part.i wanna get rid of these unwanted excessive hairs its awful n embarrassing 😢😢
Perfect ❤

Please avoid music
Sproule Lactone?? I think they meant spironolactone. I would correct this.
The explenation was very useful. The animation needs some working
- please be mindful of sexistic animation of women. It's very male gaze heavy and that hip to tiny waist to big breast ratio with defined abs is not normal nor health relevant. A woman with child looking like that and being out with such clothes is also very unlikely and goes way too eaily towards body shaming of women and especially women post child birth.
- it would have been good to add that the fallopian tube actively picks up the egg. Other than that, the animation of period bleeding looks like all cleanly sloshes out in a huge red flurry. And that's not how that works. So it would be helpful if the animation there would not feed into such misunderstanding.
Again, the health relevan infornation is very appreciated. It'll be more helpful without the negative side effects above.
Continued diets over 2 years now
Lost 14kgs
Drinking enough water
Avoiding oil Maida sugar etc.
Helped me a lot.. But still a long way to go
Your videos are very informative, thank you. I hope you will also include about menorrhagia, or menstruation irregularities, and dysmenorrhea - I will be so looking forward to it.
Sure! Thank you 🙏🏻
