Product Information

Despite affecting around 1 in 10 women in the UK [1] , which makes it the most common female hormone condition, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is still often misunderstood by many people. It is most broadly associated with problems getting pregnant (although in many cases it does not need to be a barrier to successful conception with the right treatments in place) and so is often seen as running ‘in parallel’ with the years where a woman might expect to be fertile. However, the various other symptoms that PCOS causes aside from this mean that it does not simply go away when a woman stops being able to conceive. The onset of menopause is not a ‘cure’ for PCOS. What is PCOS? In terms of taking the sachet, it does have a slight sweet taste. My friend recommended I take it with warm water so the powder can dissolve. At first it made me gag a little but I’m used to it now and I take it with half a glass of water instead of a whole glass (also a mistake I made). Overall I’m hopeful!!

PCOS is actually a ‘mixed bag’ of signs and symptoms. Many women that have PCOS will look very different from each other. There is no ‘typical’ as it is so variable. Consequently, diagnosing PCOS is not easy because the patients are often so different from each other (some may be overweight, others slim). Inofolic Alpha contains myo-inositol, alpha-lactalbumin and folic acid. Alpha-lactalbumin is a protein that can improve the intestinal absorption of myo-inositol. The combination of myo-inositol, alpha-lactalbumin and folic acid improves the following 3 aspects of PCOS management: In one study, obese women with a poor lipid profile (an indicator for potential heart disease in the future) were given a combination of myo-inositol and D-chiro inositol. After six months of taking the inositols, their lipid profiles improved considerably. Regulates and restores menstrual cycles There are many other studies to explore and research continues, so it helps to stay informed and make certain you have the latest information.Specialists have defined PCOS as a syndrome characterised by having at least two of the following three signs: For anyone who is wondering whether to buy or not, this journey is hideous with so many unspoken struggles, well what I can say it won’t do any harm to at least try it, it works for many many people. I’m giving the product 5 stars regardless as the product is great quality and the customer service was second to none. If I buy again and it suddenly starts working I’ll revise the review I don't take Inofolic but I am taking 4g Inositol plus separate folic acid, which are both equivalent to the 4g inositol + 400 micrograms of folic acid in Inofolic

If you have PCOS, you have excess androgens (male hormones) in your body, often due to insulin resistance and inflammation. This means that you may not get a surge of LH (Luteinizing hormone) each month.Never heard anything about aspirin on my travels however - unfortunately it all ended two days before my 12 week scan so never had that appt. To be honest i'd try anything they said! That was what was so hard with the conflicting advice on metaformin, one side said don't take it because it can pass through the placenta to the baby and the other said it can reduce miscarriage. I wonder if even specialist Doctors have an answer on that! Infertility can be a lonely, all-consuming place to be. It can affect every aspect of your life.
