Ladies, it's 2024, not 1994 - we know that PCOS can be put into remission and that symptom management is not the only option. If you want to put PCOS into remission in about one year, keep your total daily carbohydrate intake below 20g/day. I am happy to explain how this works, answer questions, or address concerns. You don't nees surgery or pills to put PCOS into remission.
@@victorymenshealth I used the term, “remission,” not “cure.” PCOS has several root causes, but, for the vast majority of women, the root cause of PCOS is glucose toxicity due to chronic overconsumption of dietary carbohydrates. Most people believe that insulin resistance or thyroid hormone imbalance is the root cause of PCOS. However, insulin resistance and thyroid dysregulation don’t just randomly happen. Because something else is causing these conditions, the conditions can’t be the cause of PCOS. Whatever causes the insulin resistance and thyroid dysfunction is ultimately what is causing PCOS. The most common cause for insulin resistance and thyroid dysregulation is glucose toxicity due to chronic overconsumption of dietary carbohydrates. *GLUCOSE TOXICITY* Any cell that is exposed to excessive glucose can be damaged in the following way: 1) Glycation - sugars can randomly attach to cells causing various dysfunctions based on the place they attach. 2) Glycation - sugars can combine with proteins or lipids (fats) to create advanced glycation end products (AGEs) which damage the body and contribute to disease states 3) Oxidation & Inflammation - exposure to glucose increases oxidative stress and causes inflammation Most people in the diet and lifestyle space are aware of this. The cellular dysfunction, AGE production, and oxidation and inflammation caused by exposure to excessive glucose levels is a necessary underlying condition for the development of PCOS. *INSULIN RESISTANCE* Insulin resistance is the condition in which a cell “locks out” its GLUT4 receptors. The locking out of the GLUT4 receptors results in insulin no longer being able to interface with that cell in order to cause glucose to enter into it. A cell will lock out the GLUT4 receptors any time there is an excess of “energy” (acetyl-coa) in that cell. So, if a person is overconsuming carbohydrates, those excessive carbohydrates will digest into excessive glucose which will be distributed to cells via insulin signaling and cause cells to reach maximum acetyl-coa levels which triggers the GLUT4 lock out which results in those cells becoming insulin resistant. The more often or longer that blood has elevated glucose, the more and more cells will reach maximum energy capacity, lock out GLUT4s, and become insulin resistant. So, simply put, insulin resistance is a condition of “too much.” *HYPERINSULINEMIA* A secondary effect of the development of systemic insulin resistance is hyperinsulinemia. In other words, the less your cells want to interact with insulin, the more insulin your body will make to try to compensate. This results in excessive insulin levels in the blood (a.k.a. hyperinsulinemia). The more insulin in the blood, the more cells will be exposed to insulin. The more cells exposed to insulin, the more cells will reach maximum energy tolerance and become insulin resistant. Chronic excessive glucose intake fuels this cycle. If the excessive glucose intake continues for long enough, this cycle will cause so many cells to become insulin resistant that the glucose in the blood no longer has anywhere to go. This results in hyperglycemia, the condition in which the body can no longer maintain healthy blood glucose levels - glucose begins to build up to toxic levels in the blood. *THYROID DYSREGULATION* Glucose toxicity, insulin resistance, and hyperinsulinemia all work together to stress the thyroid (and other organs). Eventually, under the persistent stress of these conditions, the thyroid becomes dysregulated and hormone imbalance occurs. Now we are at the point at which most people who deal with PCOS are familiar with - a woman comes in with insulin resistance and hormone imbalances. But these conditions are far, far, from being the cause of PCOS. The root cause traces all the way back to years of chronic overconsumption of carbohydrates/glucose. So, with that as a background, it becomes very easy to understand how an extremely low carbohydrates diet causes PCOS to go into remission. If the root cause of PCOS is excessive carbohydrate intake resulting in glucose toxicity, then cutting off the excessive carbohydrate intake cuts off the glucose toxicity and allows the body to recover and repair. If having the water hose open all the time is flooding your garden, turning off the water hose or turning it down to a drip, solves the problem and allows the garden to dry out and recover. It’s so simple. Cut off the glucose intake. This cuts off the inflammation, glycations, insulin resistance, hyperinsulinemia, hyperglycemia, and thyroid dysregulation. Then it’s just a matter of giving your body enough time to repair itself. This takes about one year - some of the cells in the reproductive system can take up to a year to replace. So, keeping your total carbohydrate intake below 20g/day deals with the underlying cause of PCOS (excessive glucose intake) and allows your body to begin to heal and reverse the PCOS symptoms which takes about one year. I’m happy to go into more detail if you are interested.

Yes please enlighten us on your low carbohydrate cure.
