PCOS (Polycystic ovarian syndrome)
PCOS has become the leading cause of female infertility, growing in tandem with the obesity epidemic. Apart from interfering with ovulation and causing missed periods, PCOS is associated with:
- Central obesity
- Diabetes type 2
- Hirsutism (excess pubic and facial hair)
- Male-pattern baldness
PCOS is so closely related to diabetes type 2, that medication for diabetes can be used to improve fertility, even if the woman doesn’t have diabetes!
In the same way that a low carb diet can be used to treat diabetes type 2 instead of drugs, it can also be used to treat PCOS, using food as your natural medicine.
