Does Anyone Know If The PCOS Nutrition Center Is Legit? Or Is It A Waste Of Tons Of Money?

A myPCOSteam Member asked a question 💭
Alameda, CA

I do not have a regular period over the last year I’ve had one maybe two natural ones. The others have been from progesterone. I currently take inositol and prenatal. I workout regularly and my diet consists of veggies, protein, fruit and zero added sugars, dairy free and gluten free. I’m having a hard time trusting anything in the internet so any true recommendations would be greatly appreciated. I am trying so hard to get pregnant 🙏🏼💞

A myPCOSteam Member

My pleasure! And thank you—it’s been hard, but we’re not giving up on this journey to parenthood.

What is a good plan to stick with daily? How can change it up every now and then to keep it more motivating?

A myPCOSteam Member

I think by gluten free he/she means cut out most of your carbs that come from refined grains because they get converted to glucose in the body . So only whole wheats & in little amounts
