PCOS/PCOD Diet Management
PCOS/PCOD Diet Management
Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) and Polycystic Ovarian Disease (PCOD) are hormonal disorders that affect metabolism, fertility, and overall health. Managing PCOS/PCOD through proper nutrition and lifestyle changes can help balance hormones, regulate menstrual cycles, and reduce symptoms like weight gain, acne, insulin resistance, and irregular periods. At Sai Dental and Wellness Centre, Dr. Shilpi Gupta (M.Sc. in Food and Dietetics) provides personalized diet plans to support hormonal health and overall well-being.
Why is Diet Important for PCOS/PCOD?
PCOS is often associated with insulin resistance, which can lead to weight gain, difficulty losing weight, and increased risk of diabetes. A balanced, nutrient-dense diet can help stabilize blood sugar, improve metabolism, and reduce inflammation, thereby easing symptoms.
Key Nutritional Strategies for PCOS/PCOD
✔ Low Glycemic Index (GI) Foods – Whole grains, legumes, and fiber-rich foods to prevent blood sugar spikes.
✔ High-Protein & Healthy Fats – Supports hormone balance and sustained energy levels.
✔ Anti-Inflammatory Diet – Includes leafy greens, berries, turmeric, and omega-3-rich foods to reduce PCOS-related inflammation.
✔ Balanced Carbohydrate Intake – Avoiding refined carbs and sugars to improve insulin sensitivity.
✔ Dairy & Gluten Control (If Needed) – Eliminating triggers that may cause hormonal imbalances and inflammation in some individuals.
✔ Hydration & Detox Foods – Supports liver health and helps flush out excess hormones naturally.
