I’m here to tell you that it absolutely is possible and I’m sharing how to do it on today’s episode! In this show, I discuss how the pill impacts your body, how to best support your body before coming off the pill and how to support your body once you are off.

If you’ve seen any doctor for PCOS, there is a strong chance there has been some mention of Metformin. Metformin is a drug used for managing blood sugar levels and is often prescribed to women with PCOS. On today’s Friday Chats, I’ll be discussing why Metformin is used for PCOS, its side effects, and if there is a better, more natural way to find relief from your PCOS symptoms. There is hope for healing PCOS naturally without the potentially harmful side effects of Metformin!

The menstrual cycle has been referred to as the 5th vital sign. It’s a key indicator of our hormone health and overall health. When thinking about the menstrual cycle, it’s common to look out for things like the length of your cycle, how many days your period is, and PMS symptoms leading up to your period. But did you know there is so much we can learn simply by looking at the color of blood during your period? In this episode, I’m jumping into this often overlooked topic. I share about what is normal and what isn’t, common misconceptions around period blood color, and what your period blood color could be telling you about your hormones.

The supplement Berberine is having a moment in the spotlight recently by being called nature’s Ozempic (a diabetes drug now being used for weight loss). But is that really a fair comparison? In today’s show, we’ll chat about what Berberine is, where it comes from, the uses and benefits of this supplement, who might be a good fit for the supplement, and ultimately if I believe it deserves the title of ‘Nature’s Ozempic’.

There is a lot of talk about what to eat with PCOS, but there isn’t much out there about how to fuel your body before and after a workout. How you fuel your body for a workout is largely dependent on the type of workout you are doing. On this episode, I’ll cover what to consider when fueling your body for low intensity or high intensity exercise. This show is packed with snack ideas and exercise guidelines based specifically on your PCOS type. I’ll also answer the following questions:
If I workout in the morning, do I have to eat breakfast before?
Is coffee before a workout okay?
Does heavy lifting and trying to hit PRs increase cortisol?
It’s important, when dealing with PCOS, to workout and fuel your body in a way that supports your hormones. Today’s episode will ensure you are setting your body up for success!

On today’s Friday Chats show, I’ll share what they are finding in these counterfeit products and where you can buy supplements you can trust!
