Very intersting, I have hormones issues too, can you please make a plan for all the cycle? I have terribile migraines during the ovulation peak, which seeds are best? Thank you so much!
I'm in a similar position. I feel like I've tried just about everything at this point so I'm excited to see the results of seed cycling. It's too early to give a review just yet, I'd like to give it a proper go, so keep an eye on this space... I'll be letting you know how I go with it!
Not sure I understand the concept. What is cycled here? Do you change the seeds every week of the cycle according to whether you are pre or post ovulation, etc.? Is it any kind of seed or just these two in particular. Never heard of this concept even though I studied medicine.
@@pinkiesmum Yes, it’s the seeds that are cycles depending on where you’re at in your cycle. Right now I’m in my menstrual / folicular phase so I’m taking pumpkin and linseeds. For my ovulatory and luteal phase I’ll switch over to sesame and sunflower seeds. I’m not surprised you didn’t learn about seed cycling in your studies, from what I hear it’s mostly prescription meds that are learned about and PCOS is also a wildly understudied condition.
You have PCOS because your insulin levels are elevated all the time. Insulin levels are elevated all the time because: • You eat more than 20g carbs/day • You snack throughout the day • You might be on hormone-altering pharmaceuticals (birth control, etc) • You have poor or limited sleep If you fix your insulin and keep it fixed, your PCOS will automatically reverse in about a year. Don't get me wrong, those seeds definitely have nutrition. No doubt. But PCOS isn't the result of a lack of nutrition. PCOS is the result of an overabundance of hormone (insulin). Eating seeds simply has no effect on your insulin. It will probably help manage PCOS symptoms, but if you want actual PCOS reversal, you have to deal with the insulin. I am happy to explain more, or answer questions, or address concerns. Peace and love.

Also, you can verify that I'm not BSing you about your insulin problems by taking one of these two tests: • Fasting Insulin • ADIPO-IR Fasting insulin about 5 uIU/mL is not good Fasting insulin tells you your baseline insulin levels. ADIPO-IR is pretty much the best test for detecting insulin resistance.
