Inositol improves insulin sensitivity, regulates menstrual cycles, and increases fertility in women with PCOS by enhancing insulin signaling and ovarian function.
Inositol, particularly myo-inositol and D-chiro-inositol, improves insulin sensitivity in women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS). This enhanced insulin signaling helps regulate menstrual cycles, improve ovarian function, and increase fertility outcomes. The mechanism involves modulating insulin pathways and promoting healthy hormone balance within the ovaries.
