Myo-Inositol Powder for the Management of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (Science-Based)Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is the most common cause of ovulatory disturbances and female infertility. Signs and symptoms of PCOS may include anovulation or menstrual irregularities, ovarian cysts on ultrasound, hyperandrogenism, including hirsutism, acne and alopecia, insulin resistance, and obesity. Insulin resistance and secondary hyperinsulinemia appear to play a causal role in the development of PCOS.

Myo-inositol has been suggested as a first-line treatment in the management of PCOS and has been shown to be effective in alleviating the symptoms of this syndrome and its associated comorbidities.
