A Guide by Coachā¤ļøTheah
Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) affects nearly 1 in 10 womenĀ of reproductive age, yet more than 70% are undiagnosed. PCOS isnāt ājust a hormone issueāāit impacts metabolism, fertility, mood, skin, and overall inflammation in the body. The good news? You can make a tremendous difference with simple nutrition and lifestyle shifts.
In this guide, I break down the Three Key Pillars to Managing PCOS Naturally, so you can feel empoweredānot overwhelmedāon your healing journey.
šæ Pillar #1: Balance Your Blood Sugar
If there is oneĀ thing I want you to remember, itās this: Blood sugar stability is foundational for healing PCOS.
More than 65ā70% of women with PCOS struggle with insulin resistance, which leads to elevated insulin levels, increased androgens (male hormones like testosterone), and the cascade of symptoms like acne, hair loss, weight gain, irregular cycles, and infertility.
How to Balance Blood Sugar Naturally
š« Avoid Sugary Foods & Added Sugars
Candy, cakes, pastries, soda, and even āhealthyā sweeteners like honey and agave can spike blood glucose and worsen symptoms. Instead, choose natural, low-glycemic sweeteners like monk fruit.
ā Choose Smart Carbs
Swap refined carbs for fiber-rich, slow-digesting alternatives:
Fruits, Sweet potato, Squash, Yogurt
High-fiber foods blunt glucose spikes and help keep insulin stable.
š« Donāt Eat Carbs Naked
This means pairing carbs with protein or healthy fatsĀ to slow digestion.
Apples + almond butter
Fruit + cottage cheese
Berries + Greek yogurt
Sourdough Toast + avocado
ā¤ļøBuild Balanced Meals
Aim for a plate that includes:
ProteinĀ (chicken, salmon, eggs)
Healthy fatsĀ (avocado, olive oil, nuts)
Fiber-rich veggiesĀ (greens, broccoli, peppers)
Move Your Body Daily
Movement increases insulin sensitivity immediately. Walking, yoga, weight training, dancingāit all counts.
āļø Consider Myo-Inositol
This nutrient supports insulin signaling and is clinically shown to:
Improve insulin sensitivity
Lower androgens
Improve ovulation
Support hormone balance

šø Pillar #2: Balance Estrogen
Many women with PCOS experience estrogen dominanceātoo much estrogen compared to progesterone. Because ovulation is often irregular with PCOS, progesterone stays low, while estrogen remains high and recirculates.
This imbalance can worsen: PMS, Heavy periods, Mood swings, Bloating, Weight gain
How to Support Estrogen Balance
š« Avoid Xenoestrogens
These are hormone-disrupting chemicals found in:
Plastics
Pesticides
Perfumes & fragrances
Cosmetics
Conventional cleaning products
What to do instead:
Choose organic produce
Swap plastic for glass containers
Use non-toxic skin & beauty products (check the EWG database)
Eat Estrogen-Detoxing Foods
Cruciferous vegetables help the liver break down excess estrogen:
Broccoli, Cauliflower, Brussels sprouts
Cabbage, Kale, Arugula
Add these into meals daily if possible!
Support Detox Pathways
To clear excess estrogen, your detox channelsāliver, lymph, gut, skināmust be flowing.
Hereās how:
Castor oil packsĀ to support lymph and liver
Milk thistleĀ for liver support and inflammation reduction
SweatingĀ through exercise or sauna
Proper hydrationĀ (64 oz/day) to keep bowel movements regular

š„ Pillar #3: Reduce Inflammation
Chronic inflammation is both a causeĀ and a symptomĀ of PCOS. Many women experience inflammatory responses triggered by food sensitivities, stress, lack of sleep, and environmental toxins.
Reducing inflammation will improve:
Hormone balance
Weight loss
Fertility
Mood
Skin (acne!)
Metabolic health
Anti-Inflammatory Foods to Add
Olive oil, Avocado Oil
Leafy greens
Berries
Fatty fish (salmon, sardines, mackerel)
Nuts & seeds
Avocado
Green tea
Dark chocolate (70%+)
Spices: turmeric, garlic, cinnamon
Foods to Avoid
Processed foods
Refined carbohydrates
Added sugars
Vegetable oils
Fried foods
Processed meats
Excess alcohol
Lifestyle for Lower Inflammation
š Get Morning Sun
Morning light helps:
Regulate your circadian rhythm
Improve sleep
Reduce inflammation
Boost vitamin D naturally
5ā15 minutes outdoors is all you need.
š“ Prioritize Deep, Restorative Sleep
Sleep deprivation increases inflammation andĀ insulin resistance.
7ā9 hours
Dark, cool room
No screens 1ā2 hours before bed
š§āāļø Manage Stress Daily
Stress is one of the fastest ways to increase inflammation and disrupt hormones.Try:
Deep breathing
Yoga
Meditation
Stretching
Five minutes of mindfulness
š Add Omega-3s
Omega-3 fatty acids from fish or high-quality supplements can significantly reduce inflammation in women with PCOS.
