Frequently asked questions
Can PCOS be cured with diet?
PCOS is a long-term condition without a cure, but diet and lifestyle can improve symptoms, weight and cycle regularity considerably.
Do I need to go gluten-free or dairy-free?
Not automatically. Foods are removed only when there is a reason, such as an intolerance, not by default.
Can I follow the plan if I am vegetarian?
Yes. Plans are built around your food preference, with enough protein from dals, curd, paneer and other sources.
Will my periods become regular?
Many people see improvement as weight and blood sugar improve, but results vary and are not guaranteed.
