What is PCOS?

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a hormonal disorder affecting approximately 10% of women of reproductive age. This condition, characterized by elevated androgens (male hormones), often coupled with estrogen dominance, is accompanied by symptoms such as infertility, irregular or absent periods, ovarian cysts, hair loss, excessive body hair growth (hirsutism), and acne. Furthermore, about 70% of women with PCOS experience insulin resistance, which frequently leads to weight gain. The exact causes of PCOS are currently unknown. It is believed that genetic factors play a role, as familial clustering of the condition has been observed. Scientific evidence suggests that inositol can demonstrably help alleviate PCOS symptoms. For this reason, we have developed inositol products to support women in restoring ovulation and regulating their menstrual cycles.

What is inositol and how can it help with PCOS?

Inositol is found in cell membranes and is involved in vital processes such as fat metabolism and cell regeneration. It is a vitamin-like substance that our bodies can normally produce from glucose. There are nine different types of inositol, of which myo-inositol and D-chiro-inositol are the most well-known. Particularly low concentrations of these two inositol forms have been found in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Numerous studies have demonstrated that taking myo-inositol and D-chiro-inositol as dietary supplements can offer many benefits in the treatment of PCOS. Among other things, it has been found that these two inositols lead to improved insulin resistance and better regulation of the menstrual cycle . Further research has shown that these two inositols can help lower androgen levels , which can have a positive effect on skin problems and excessive body hair. Ultimately, it was found that myo-inositol and D-chiro-inositol can help PCOS patients achieve regular ovulation by improving ovarian function and egg quality. Because of these numerous health benefits, we have developed products containing both inositols. You can buy them from us in powder or capsule form, without any additives .
