One thing I know for sure about PCOS is that no one seems to know, for absolutely sure, what helps and what doesn't. I felt for the last...

I guess there is different types of soy and so the kind you have is a mixture and it only has the 62mgs of the soy isoflavnes...which is what you want to help with ovulation....i just got the soy isoflavnes cuz i don't know anything about soy in general and it was just easier that way..everything can be so confusing and difficult.... it is up to you

Mon 1 very true! I was on a low calorie and low carb diet....around 1000 calories per day with less than 15 grams carbohydrate and I still couldnt lose any weight. My insulin resistance was raging, dark velvety skin patches on skin folds, weight gain, tiredness, no periods, excess hair and acne etc etc. Sometimes diet and exercise isnt enough, although it is KEY and no amount of vitamins or supplements will help if your diet is full of sugar...

I just ordered 4lbs of buckwheat farinetta. I feel more comfortable with eating it in food form since im breastfeeding. I think its 40 g of it equals 600mg of DCI (Im 114 lbs so thats enough).

And my sugar cravings :S specially donuts.

TY both for your replies! I guess I will get that for this month and see how it works for me! DO u think its ok to just take the MYO?
