[quote=Anonymous]I have PCOS (actual ovarian cysts in addition to hormonal symptoms) and I would echo both increasing Vitamin D (most of us don't get enough anyway, but many studies have shown there is a link between D deficiency and PCOS, so it can't hurt) and lowering refined carbs. I still eat whole grains (quinoa, brown rice, whole wheat bread) but not white flour/ sugar. I don't sweeten things often, but like for oatmeal, I'll use half a teaspoon of agave nectar because it's lower on the glycemic index than most other sweeteners. This "diet," if you can call it that, helped me, but seeing an RE can't hurt and should be really helpful in TTC. If it's at all encouraging, I am currently pregnant and conceived without assistance. Best of luck![/quote]
