Myo-Inositol Miracle

I've been taking Myo-inositol for less than a week and for the first time in over a decade, my period isn't irregular. I can't remember the last time I had a 28 day cycle!

I took Myo-inositol about 5 years ago and it didn't work at all, so it hadn't even cross my mind to try it again until I'd read about its success in reducing gestational diabetes during pregnancy (we are due to start IVF next month).

For background - I was diagnosed with PCOS 14 years ago. I have Hashimoto's which turned to Hypothyroidism. Over the past year I have done absolutely anything and everything to understand and address my health as we have been TTC for so long with no luck. I was severely iron deficient and my B12, vitamin D and folate levels weren't great either. I've addressed these through diet and supplements and also started medication for my thyroid.

I know it's early days, but I just wanted to share this in case anyone has tried it previously with no luck, as it may be worth addressing any other underlying issues and then trying again.

The brand I've been using is linked below, I take two scoops a day, once before lunch and once before dinner.

Well done with working so hard on pragmatically addressing your health topics (in preparation for starting your IVF next month) - best wishes for your IVF journey.

If you have been taking it for less than a week then you had already ovulated before you even started it likely? You ovulate roughly 2 weeks before you begin to bleed. So I'm not sure if it really could have had an affect that quickly.

If you would like regular periods you could try keto-carnivore and stick to it (no cheating) less than 18g carbs a day. It is extremely effective in inducing regular periods in us ladies with PCOS. It worked for me, I did it for 4ish months and had 4 regular periods and then did my FET cycle. Myo-inositol on its own never made my periods regular. Best of luck xx
