ABOUT MYO-INOSITOL
For women with PCOS and other hormonal issues, hair is a big deal. You get too much hair in some places, well everywhere but your head. On your head, you lose it. PCOS causes an excess of testosterone, leading to male pattern baldness, as well as male pattern body hair (excess hair on the chest, back, hands & feet, butt, all the manly places, also thicker & darker) and the dreaded facial hair.
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is the most common endocrine cause of hirsutism, acne and male pattern alopecia, often characterised by ovulation disorders (usually manifested as oligo- or amenorrhea).
Vita-Salute University in Italy recently studied fifty women who had polycystic ovary syndrome. They took supplemental myo-inositol for six
months to determine its effects on skin conditions such as hirsutism and acne. After 3 months of taking inositol, the women had
reduced testosterone and improved insulin function. In addition, after 6 months on the myo-inositol, they also had significant
reductions of both hirsutism and acne.
The researchers concluded: Myo - inositol "is a simple and safe treatment that ameliorates the metabolic profile of patients with PCOS,
reducing hirsutism and acne." As the researchers say, myo-inositol supplementation is both simple and safe. If taken over
the span of half a year, it appears to reduce acne and hirsutism problems.
Myo-inositol shows the most promise as a dietary supplement for promoting female fertility, restoring insulin sensitivity in instances
of resistance (type II diabetes and polycystic ovarian syndrome being the most well investigated), and for reducing anxiety as well.
Due to the mixed benefits to insulin resistance and fertility, myo-inositol is considered a good treatment for PCOS in women.
It works by "informing" hormonal cells in the endocrine track how to operating normally in a hormonally imbalanced body. More
importantly, it helps promote regulation in insulin levels. And because many women with PCOS are diabetic or pre-diabetic,
you can see why myo-inositol would be a popular supplement.
