Magnesium, inositol, and berberine have drastically changed my pcos ... I hope this helps someone along with organic multi vitamin and omega 3 and turmeric

Thank you soooo much for doing this video I have PCOS, since I was a teen. It sucks. Life has its terrible lows with this. I have never tried anything to help it. I have been so in denial. Thanks for encouraging me.

Thank you for this video. I'm struggling major with this right now and am trying different options with my doctor right now. I am definitely going to be adding some of the things you reccomended as I am desperate for "normalcy".

Omg I didn’t know you had pcos?! Now I am even happier I found your channel and going back to the beginning with weight loss, Did you do anything different starting your weight loss journey with PCOS?

@pasi-fourmylewifey1491 4 года назад

Thank you for sharing! Now that it has been a year since you posted this video, can you do an update and check in. Maybe share what you still do, what you no longer use, and what is new

@vanessameisel7408 4 года назад

I can recommend Dr. Jason Fung's videos. He says it’s better to do intermittent fasting combined with healthy keto instead of eating regulary. Everytime we eat our bloodsugar and insulin levels rise which will actually hinder us from loosing weight. 😊

@priscillashaw5715 5 лет назад

Chocolate cravings are actually a magnesium deficiency. I have similar issues and taking bulk supplements magnesium glycinate has been extremely helpful. I also rarely have sweet foods. Im curious if you participate in celebrations where theres sweets etc. My kids are always trying to tell me to have birthday cake.

priscilla shaw on occasion 👌🏻

@IamGodsgirl139 5 лет назад

Ashlee, I have struggled with this since I was 18. So almost 30 years for me. And now, going into peri menopause, makes it so. Much. Worse. I’ve actually talked with my doctor about hysterectomy since we are done having babies. It’s a struggle every month. Thank you so much for the suggestions. I will definitely have to check them out! Blessings from Texas! 😘

@GraceandGrit 5 лет назад

Jennifer Lee I’d love to do the same!

@madelinecedillos109 5 лет назад

Does hysterectomy make symptoms go away? Would love to get one when I have my last baby by c-section lol

@IamGodsgirl139 5 лет назад

Madeline, I believe so if it’s a complete hysterectomy, where both uterus and ovaries are removed. My doctor has advised against it this far, since it’s major surgery. Currently I’m on the mini pill since I can’t take estrogen. That’s helped some, at least getting my cycles back on track. He’s also recommended a uterine ablation to help with my extremely heavy periods.

@IamGodsgirl139 5 лет назад

And I had both my babies by C section because they were breech. Easy peasy in my opinion. Lol. 😉

@diaryofahomeschoolmama9191 5 лет назад

I do have a question. So I follow timed nutrition because I'm currently doing 80 day obsession from beachbody, I know you used to coach not sure if you are familiar with that program however, but I get like 6 (3/4 cups) of protein daily, would you suggest upping that for PCOS?

@GraceandGrit 5 лет назад

Diary of a Homeschool Mama that’s a good amount:) because each of those serving sizes probably holds about 12-20 g

@Shavelle9691 5 лет назад

My husband and I are trying to conceive our second but having a very hard time. Is there something that helped you if you had trouble? I’m new and feel like we have so much in common already.

@GraceandGrit 5 лет назад

welcome, i didn't know i had pcos when we were trying, I'm sorry and ill be praying for you

@OurDaysTogether 5 лет назад

Just curious... Do your kiddos take vitamins?

@mtngrace123 5 лет назад

Actually healthy fats is better at leveling off blood sugar than protein. Yes protein is important but over about 20 grams per meal or snack can actually spike your insulin . It also is hard on your kidneys per my certified dietitian. My blood sugar was better when I ate more fats and moderate protein and carbs.

@FamilyFirst365 4 года назад

I have pcos and hypopituitarism which is a crazy combination. I found out that I have pcos after my third child . He seven months . I just need me period to come back asap.

@nimdailoth8115 3 года назад

Hello, I have PCOS, and I made HOMA test and it's 2.13... I'm afraid, I don't want to get overweight because of insulin resistance! :C what can I do???

@maryjaney2959 2 года назад

@chaosmanaged2925 5 лет назад

I have PCOS. I tried metformin. It helped me with losing weight, but the side effects just got worse the longer I took it. It took a long time for my body to recover after getting off it. I’m now fighting PCOS as naturally as possible with supplements and diet. Great suggestions!

@GraceandGrit 5 лет назад

Chaos Managed great to hear your perspective having gone the medicated route the side effects were what steered me against it

@steelergirl1026 4 года назад

I've heard of a supplement called berberine that's supposed to be like metformin but its natural

@tracylayne9918 5 лет назад

I too have PCOS, sorry to ask but have you or anyone commenting on this video, How are yalls periods?? Before babies I had like 2 a year( maybe) but now 3 boys later, Praise GOD!! They are more frequent and heavy, is this normal? I also need to lose 40 lbs, I struggle so bad with carbs and sugar!! I get asked a lot when my baby is due? I am not pregnant I have PCOS and I need to exercise!! Thanks Ashlee for all your videos!

@GraceandGrit 5 лет назад

Tracy Layne I get mine about every 35-50 days, before I had pcos I got it every 28 like clockwork.

@eppisong 5 лет назад

My periods are about 34-55 days very heavy and painful. Prior to pcos I had a normal cycle of 28- 30 days and much lighter.

@diaryofahomeschoolmama9191 5 лет назад

I get periods like every other month, before PCOS my periods were extremely regular but now they are very inconsistent and they are heavier than they were before.

Jennifer Lee praying for you mama! You can conquer this!

I also take chromium picolinate and it helps level blood sugars and sugar cravings as well. For me I need to take it with food or it can make you feel icky!!

Do you have any tips for the process of eliminating sugar? I’ve tried multiple times and keep going back but that shake is a good idea because I feel like times where it’s most difficult is definitely hormone related (on the same page with you there)

@GraceandGrit 5 лет назад

that would be my suggestion, or having things prepared that satisfy the taste without sugar. I love rice cakes with pb!

@ledbygracelaurapenaranda7105 5 лет назад

Zia Moon great question, a blood test can reveal deficiencies but also if you examine how you’re feeling can also help you identify what you may be missing.

@@GraceandGrit What do you eat just before a workout? I find that it's only when I eat starchy carbs that I can have a really good workout and feel strong the whole time.

Saying that Insulin resistance least to Diabetes I would argue My understanding of Insulin resistance if not managed properly and monitored can lead to Diabetes.

@thathungrywanderer 5 лет назад

The smarty pants vitamins have cane sugar in them 😔 Sugar reduces your immune system by 30% for up to 8 hours each time you consume it and is not recommended in any amount when you have PCOS. Also, Meat has been shown to worsen PCOS, not sure if you consume it but since I have quit eating most animal products after I had tried everything else, I really have had drastic improvements.

@gardenho173 5 лет назад

Kersten No, BEEF is linked to messing with hormones and pcos. Lean meats such as chicken and seafood are fine for pcos women to eat.
