Hi Cyster! In this video I talk to you all about insulin resistance symptoms and natural treatment options! Let me know in the comments what has worked for you in the past to treat your insulin resistance with PCOS!
Just a heads up that Ovasitol (Inositol) is a sugar alcohol and some people may have digestive issues after consuming it. I tried it for the first time yesterday and it gave me an upset tummy for a little while. I've read though that this side effect eases after a few days/weeks and to maybe start with 1 dose for a week or two instead of the recommended daily 2 doses, at least until u get used to it. Good luck to u all!
RU-vid has made a massive difference! Information such as this would not be accessible not even at the doctors. 30 yrs PCOS, glad womens lives are changing thanks to the information age.
I have been diagnosed with PCOS for a while now and wasn't paying attention to it because my symptoms were not severe. Now I'm suffering from really bad irregular periods, weight gain in the abdomen and skin discoloration around my neck. NOW IS MY TIME TO TAKEOVER PCOS THATS WHY I AM HERE.
Girl! Same! My OB told me I had it AGES ago, like literally 8 years ago and I was all, oh, it ain't nothing, I don't have symptoms, I don't need to worry about it. Welp, that freaking changed this last year. 🤬 Now I'm here. Learning how to deal with this damn monster that is PCOS.
Stumbled on your Tik Tok page and got teary eyed learning about the 4 different types (I had no clue about) then searched for your RU-vid page and cried watching this video. Smh I’m an emotional wreck trying so hard to reverse my PCOS. Happy I found your page.
I have gained so much weight in 1 year, I went from wearing crop tops to crying every night and not being able to look at myself. On top I have moon face now so I just look disgusting. I honestly hate pcos and at this point I’m looking at diet pills
I avoid pictures of me, looking in the mirror, etc. I have had pcos and problems with my weight my entire life and I haven’t been able to put on a swimsuit in two years. It’s awful.
Cyster try going : 1.gluten,diary and sugar free 2.slow weighted workout and a bit of yoga 3.decaf with greentea or spearmint tea 4.supplement vitamin d and ovasitol 5.go on a walk after meal 6.sleep well
This is so absolutely enlightening. I have been battling PCOS for years now and working out so hard to lose weight. I never knew any of this. You're an absolute angel for explaining everything so well and sharing your knowledge. Thank you so much.
i want to appreciate DR Rorpopor herbal for giving me back my life again, i was diagnose of PCOS virus after the use of DR Rorpopor herbal medicine i got cured, all thanks to DR Rorpopor herbal I will forever be grateful to DR Rorpopor herbal 💯💯💯💯
I’ve lost 100 lbs since Jan by doing keto (fallen on and off the last 3 months but lost 60 lbs the first 4.5 months) and I can’t believe all I’ve learned about PCOS and my insulin resistance. I’m still battling the habit of craving sugar (or keto sweets) after meals and it’s tough since I did it for almost 10 years eating a ton of sweets. But I can do it!
Leaving a comment here for Cysterhood raffle. Most importantly, as I always say…thank you so much for the amazing work you do. Without you and your husband I would be crying in a corner still trying to figure out what is going on with me and my hormones with PCOS and how to fix it. ❤️❤️
Got diagnosed during covid. Was working through out covid. Went through immense stress, sleepless nights, poor diet, increased BMI of 31, irregular menses, infertility. Struggling to lose weight inspite of being on diet religiously and regular gym workouts. I have been completly jam-packed with work....still I workout.....i lost 4kgs in 1 yr.... gained it back in 3 months....now starting from zero..... inspite of being a doctor myself didn't have knowledge about how to deal with PCOS. Slowly i am making changes....i am being gluten free since 3 months....now going to go dairy free...lets see how things work out.
This video was so informative and helpful. I was diagnosed with PCOS earlier this year, and I definitely have insulin resistance. I've been working out for over three years; weight training/powerlifting. These past three years, though, I've done nothing but gain weight. It's been so frustrating because I've watched my weight go up over 60 lbs and move up two pants sizes from what I used to wear. Thank you for not putting the blame on the person. I've seen too many videos of people saying "just eat better". You've given many people, like myself, an actual tool unlike other videos I've seen.
I was 15 years old when the doctors figured out I had pcos but they just gave me the pill and it made me so sick I tried the pill for years and they checked my sugar but they never did research I had a niece in a different country who found out My insuline was 3 times as high as normal so I had to take medication and I’m so glad that after freaking 6 years I got my period again the last time I had my period normally was when I was 12 and no one ever did someone so never give up ! And you are the only one who knows your own body best some people will make you feel stupid about it but if you know something is wrong you just know never give up
I have found eating 4 high protein, small meals a day has really helped with my cravings. I started last week and have already noticed a difference with inflammation. I developed allergies years ago and now I have no allergies!
I am so frustrated with my PCOS symptoms and I just feel so misunderstood in the doctors office. I would love to try something new to finally feel like myself 😭
Just saw your post. There are n m any. Ever approaches to better management of this issue. We have had great success with our program for many ladies. Let be know if we can help
It’s my 1 year anniversary after my doctor diagnosed I have PCOS and Fatty liver, prone to have insulin resistance Ive been on medications but the only thing that has changed was my mood swings and depression. Ill be trying this approach for 1 month and would gladly share my experience! lets go cysters!
I am pretty certain that I have insulin resistance as I have most of the symptoms you have described. 😣 I am getting a full glucose panel done next week though with my natural doctor and I started taking ovasitol a couple of weeks ago! I am REALLY trying to be GF and DF free too. Thank you for all of your wonderful information you are always putting out. I am so glad I am able to follow you guys!
Hi Cyster, I know navigating PCOS can be overwhelming, but I am so proud of you for being your #1 health advocate! I am so proud of you, and remember to strive for progress not perfection! Keep me updated on your journey! ❤️
Hi Cyster, I completely understand how frustrating PCOS can be! PCOS is reversible through diet and lifestyle changes, and we are here for you!! Every step of the way. ❤️
I recently told my doctor about my PCOS concerns, he was like try to be more active. That was his response when I told him I was very active, workout 3 to 4 times a week and walk a lot. But that was his only suggestion
Most doctors don't even know about PCOS.. it's so sad I went to so many doctors about it.. there's a website out there called Dutch test.. that website will show you where you can find a doctor that knows about PCOS in your area and then you can get a lot of help from there..
omg I haven't even watched all of the video yet but I relate so much to after meal cravings! especially if I eat a meal with low carbs and high protein, I desperately look for something sweet :( I hope there's a cure for that!
Thank you so much!!! believe me you been a really big help for my life, from 2 years ago thanks!!! keep it up. I am Insulin resistance and is a little difficult for me, but am gluten and dairy free
I just gained 4 kilos in like 5 days...😀 it's so hard to not gain weight with pcos ive lostso much weight and I always gain it back ( I have an eating disorder and it's really hard to fight my sugar cravings 😭)
Thank you so much for this video! I just learned that I have PCOS and am insulin resistant. My doctor basically gave me two options: metformin or ozempic. I was worried that medication was the only thing I could do and that if I started them, I'd be on them the rest of my life! 😬
I'm a cyster of almost 20 years... Diagnosed at 17 and about to turn 37. I've lost weight through calorie counting, put it on again plus more. I've been on medication and used food as medicine but as I get older it's getting harder to maintain.
Insulin resistance is really confusing to me now. I thought I understood but I guess not lol! Many PCOS women have normal A1c so how exactly is insulin resistance measured for PCOS women without diabetes or pre diabetes (anything under 5.7)? If all labs, blood work and doctors test are coming out normal. 😩🤔
Mam, I am getting bloating sometimes whenever I take little sugary foods and pimples. I am also on pcos medications and diet. Following your videos and getting inspired.
Unfortunately, I've tried every single thing to lose weight with PCOS w/ IR. I did whole wheat/grain/sweet potatoes, perfect plates etc. Doesn't matter the type of carb, my body says absolutely not. I'm great with portions, tracking macros, nutrients, calories etc... Only thing that has EVER helped me lose weight , super quick too? Carnivore/ strict keto. Lost 26 lbs in a month, 105 lbs in 5.5 months. I did nothing else but just eat meat/chicken/eggs lol. It's super hard but when you're literally crying and wanting to yeet yourself off of a cliff every day since the second grade, you'll try anything.
I am too struggling with pcos my doctor said inflammation my ovary volume is 29 and 30 and as you said symptoms I have both insulin and inflammation my neck is dark but I am fair everyone is asking why I am fed up explaining and they can't understand what i am going through my limbs are in pain and over weight 94kg I am depressed please help me on this everyone is bullying me when I was teen I was like a model but now I am faaaaat
What sweetner do you use for coffee and do you recommend mushroom coffee also I'm almost 60 and hadn't had a period in 12 yrs, is the ovasitol something I should avoid, i do have ovarian cists
Seriously i just hate PCOS I've been trying my best to stop pcos but i can't, Gaine weight for almost 1yr 🤦 Having irregular periods, almost 3 year now n I'm sick of these pcos..
Thankyou for the great video. I have PCOS but my periods are regular now however i have all the other symptoms. Does taking Ovasitol make you bleed heavier? I have fibroids as well so am scared that Ovasitol will make the bleeding worse
Pls someone help me as to which test should be done for checking insulin resistance & also which tests are good for knowing whether I have diabetes or not Pls help
Question ! I lost a good amount of weight but I added ovasitol to the regimen and I gained five pounds back in a week but I didn’t change anything else. I heard that sometimes d-chiro insitol can cause weight gain in those that have normal testosterone levels. Should I just take myoinsitol alone ?
I have pcos insulin resistance but I don't gain weight. Though I have diabetics in my family. I like the way my weight is but what should I do to reduce the insuline resistence ?
Is it possible to have insulin resistance and not have polycystic ovaries? That's what my dr said 🤷🏻♀️ Started to follow your tips as of today, thank you ☺
Men get it and they don’t have ovaries so yeah. Anyone can get insulin resistance, the only thing PCOS does is add the effect where high blood insulin triggers the release of testosterone.
Mona, totally. PCOS is somewhat misleading name, you can have no cysts on your ovaries, but have IR and basically hormone imbalance due to the androgens.
Anybody here have insulin resistance with no family history and not overweight or obese? It's also not hard for me too lose weight. I just have the high testosterone high DHEA and acanthosis nigricans
Hi .. I do have PCOS bec I have hair under my chin and unable to lose weight ... one thing I don't have to worry is my monthly cycle...i always get it on time unless I'm stressed then too it's a week early or late by a few days. Any suggestions? I'm a rice eater....I walk a minimum of 3 miles per day. Do let me know your thoughts, thank you 🙏🙂
@@mariatkachenko DO IT! Between Ovasitol and a few other tips they have given us since I’ve been following them, I have felt the best I have in a really long time!! My acne is not completely gone but MUCH better and it feels so good!! I got my period about 3 weeks after starting Ovasitol and other changes.. and have gotten it every month since.. mostly a week, week and a half, late.. but I get my period.. I’m gonna be honest, I have four kids.. it’s hard but I went with all the “easier” parts of the battle.. ovasitol, spearmint tea, adding the pumpkin seeds when I can remember, chia seeds… reduced gluten and dairy.. not completely but close! Hope that helps! 💗
@@pamelatorres4548 has it helped with weight if that was one of your problems? It’s my biggest issue… starting cutting out gluten and dairy about a week about too
@@mariatkachenko Yes, slowly but surely. I have lost about ten pounds.. but I have also made a few easy dietary changes.. I don’t drink juice, on ocasional exemption a little orange juice with breakfast.. I stopped soda.. I switched my creamer to a dairy free one.. switched to decaf coffee 🥺.. I measure my rice (that’s a big one for a Puerto Rican 🥴)… and a really big one, I barely eat fast food anymore.. That’s one of of the hardest ones with kids.. I eat canyon bake house gluten free bread and try to make better choices everyday.. it’s helped a lot..
@@pamelatorres4548 That’s great to hear that this helped your symptoms! A win for one of us with pcos is a win for all!😊😊 just ordered some to try, praying for the best!
I would love to win a chance to get to know my PCOS. I’m only 15 years old and I feel horrible and I would to do gluten and dairy free but I don’t know how to start.
I bought the Ovasitol because of you!’ I haven’t gotten a period yet but I’ve been taking it since September 5th it’s the one with the scoops. I take one in the morning before work and then when I get home at 6 It does help with my cravings but I notice after 7 hours I will start to get those sugar cravings… is there anything to help with that? Also how long did everyone start to notice a period. Thanks it will be a lot of help to me
I have pcos and diabetes. This info is so helpful. Like you stated the doctor just wants you lose weight like what the jell does that mean. A few years I was able to lose worthy but once I stopped metformin the cravings jumped! Then pandemic and here we are. I’m very grateful for this info! I would like to know if anyone taken the Ovasitol? What are the side effects? Here often would I have to take it and how long do I take it for?
I am so glad you found this video helpful! I have not heard of side effects but I have heard of some Cysters experiencing their blood sugar lower when they take it without a meal or full stomach. The dosage is twice a day, I like to spread mine out, so once in the morning with breakfast and later in the day with diner! The supplement comes in a 3 month supply, which some Cysters have seen is enough time to see improvements in their symptoms. It really depends on your symptoms! Remember to take it one day at a time, Cyster! ❤️
It gave me a bad stomach but I've heard this passes in a week or so. My fingers are crossed that it does cos I just started taking it. I took it after lunch but going to try drinking it while eating this time. And also start with 1 dose instead of 2 for a week or so until your body gets used to it.
I have lean pcos and the symptoms you've given of insulin resistance seem to apply to me but the weird thing is that I cannot gain weight. No matter how much I try. It is rather so easy for me to lose what I have. It makes me look very skinny and small for my age. Do you know anything about this?
Hi you really should check you the mastering diabetes method by Robbie and Cyrus. Would love to hear your opinions on it! Their scientifically proven philosophy is that to properly treat insulin resistance, you need to have a high carb and low fat diet. I have been trying it for the past 4 months and it has truly changed my life (and my bloodwork as well).You've been so helpful on my journey to healing my PCOS, and would love to see how you feel about this :)
My period doesn't care about anything lol. Constant periods through pcos, both doses of Moderna and exclusive breastfeeding. She's gonna show up exactly where she needs to be on time.
