“PCOS affects about 10% of women, but its symptoms vary greatly from one patient to another: the disease can manifest itself in a very mild way, as well as being very disabling.

The symptoms are as follows:

Ovulation disorder: the scarcity or absence of ovulation (dysovulation or anovulation) results in irregular cycles, longer than 35 to 40 days, or even in the total absence of periods (amenorrhea). These disorders cause infertility in about half of women with PCOS.

Hyperandrogenism: excessive testosterone production results in hyperpilosity in 70% of women with PCOS, acne and hair loss (alopecia).

Metabolic syndrome: Excessive adiposity caused by hyperandrogenism predisposes to insulin resistance and diabetes. Patients also have an increased risk of high blood pressure and cardiovascular disease.”[1]

Due to the high levels of male hormones in women with PCOS, they often suffer from oocyte maturation disorders associated with irregular or absent menstrual bleeding.

Insulin resistance is also common. This leads to a specifically increased demand for vitamins, minerals and other substances. Myo-inositol, Folic Acid, N-Acetyl-Cysteine, Zinc combined with a high dose of folic acid and vitamins E, C, B5, B6, B12, D3 and other nutrients help women meet their needs nutritional information and therefore to plan their pregnancy.
