Polycystic Ovary Syndrome is characterized by insulin resistance, causing an imbalance in hormones which in turn causes irregular menstrual cycles.
A PCOS diet is similar to a diabetic diet in that it is low-carb and low sugar. Exercise should always be a part of your day as well. Losing weight can help control the symptoms of PCOS.
