I AM NOT A MEDICAL PROFESSIONAL AND NOTHING POSTED HERE SHOULD BE CONSTRUED AS MEDICAL ADVICE. Always discuss medications with your medical provider before adding any supplements to your routine. Do not stop taking prescription medication without discussing with your provider. I learned my body needed sufficient time to reset after weaning off prescriptions before slowly adding in any supplements. My notes of “caused anxiety” were a much more uncomfortable experience than two words imply and took several days to undo by stopping all supplements and then later adding back in the ones that appeared safe for me personally.

PCOS is complicated, but building a supplement stack doesn’t have to be.

Always double-check with your doctor, but this list is here to help cut through the noise and give you a clear place to start.
