30-year-old Laura and her partner had been trying to have a baby for ten months. But with a history of PCOS, combined with weight gain, digestive issues, tiredness and mood swings, it was very challenging.
“The medicine I’d been prescribed for PCOS didn’t suit me at all,” she said. “The side effects were difficult to cope with, my weight was a constant struggle and I was worried that it was preventing me from getting pregnant.”
Laura’s gut instinct was correct. The medication prescribed for PCOS can increase your risk of becoming insulin resistant, which can reduce fertility.
Laura contacted Plena Health for an initial 30-minute consultation to discuss her health concerns and goals. We suggested a 12 week programme for Laura. As well as the nutrition review, we conducted an in-clinic assessment of her metabolic flexibility and body composition, via the MetFlexBio® protocol. This was repeated at 4 weekly intervals, to track her progress following the changes in her diet.
