There’s so much noise online when it comes to managing Endo and PCOS — and I’ve definitely wasted time (and money) on things that did nothing.
So I wanted to share what’s actually made a difference for me — not as a doctor, but as someone who’s been figuring this out for years, through trial, error, and a lot of frustration.
Here’s what I’ve personally found helpful:
• Berberine – helped with blood sugar control, reduced cravings, and improved energy
• Inositol (I take a combo of Myo-Inositol + D-Chiro, branded as Inoglut) – helped regulate my cycles and reduce hair shedding
• Magnesium – my go-to for mood, sleep, and reducing cramp intensity
• Vitamin D – game-changer for energy and skin
• Minoxidil – helped regrow hair I thought I’d never get back
• Zinc + Omega-3s – for skin, inflammation, and hormonal balance
• Cycle tracking – honestly changed how I see my body and symptoms
I’m still on the journey, but getting the right support (and staying consistent) made all the difference.
