2 Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Affects 5-10% of women of reproductive age Characterised by anovulation, hyperandrogenism and polycystic ovaries Is associated with insulin resistance and obesity, which is present in approx50% of women with PCOS. One of the most common causes of infertility Hirschberg AL. (2009) Polycystic ovary syndrome, obesity and reproductive implications. Womens Health (Lond Engl). Sep;5(5): Female Infertility - Causes Autoimmune conditions/cancer or tumour/clotting disorders / birth defects Diabetes Uterine/cervical growths (such as fibroids or polyps) Excessive exercising Eating disorders or poor nutrition Too much alcohol Obesity Older age PCOS PID Scarring associated with endometriosis and STIs Thyroid disease Hormonal imbalance Certain medications, including chemo drugs 4 Vorvick L.

3 Practical PCOS Solutions What is PCOS? Signs & Symptoms Infertility & PCOS What can we do to help? Insulin dysregulation Female hormonal disruption Nutrient deficiency Further considerations Maintenance 5 What is Polycystic Ovary Syndrome? 6 3
4 Polycystic Ovaries Multiple cyst formation on the ovaries 7 Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome Presence of polycystic ovaries plus: Excess androgens (male hormones) Facial hair (hirsutism) Acne Infertility Obesity (50%) Little or no menstrual flow Mood swings Increased incidence of CVD risk factors 8 4
5 Testing for PCOS Ultra Sound Blood test LH FSH DHEA Testosterone Prolactin Thyroid hormones Low SHBG Adrenal Function GTT/fasting glucose Questionnaire? 9 Usual Treatments for PCOS Anti-androgens Oral contraceptive Metformin Clomifene Diuretics 10 5
6 What should I do? 11 Practical PCOS Solutions Insulin & Cortisol Balance Hormonal dysregulation Nutrient Deficiencies 12 6
7 Stress Clinical Depression Elevated adrenal cortisol Elevated androgen production Insulin & Cortisol Balance Elevated blood glucose levels Excessive insulin secretion More androgen hormone production Converts excess androgen to oestrone Insulin resistance Increase in pancreatic insulin production Centripetal obesity Metabolic Syndrome Disruption of GnRH Excess LH and insufficient FSH Hyperandrogenism Normal menstrual cycle ceases Acne Hirsutism Male hair distribution Amenorrhea Anovulation Infertility 13 Milk Protein Hydrolysate & Theanine Insulin & Cortisol Balance Powdered Myoinositol, vitamin B6, Magnesium & Calcium Low GI Metabolic Food 14 7
8 Milk Protein Hydrolysate & Theanine Insulin & Cortisol Balance Milk Protein Hydrolysate & Theanine Technical Review 15 Milk Protein Hydrolysate (Lactium ) and Theanine Each tablet provides: L-Theanine mg Milk Protein Hydrolysate (Lactium ) mg Dose: 1-2 capsules daily 16 8
9 Milk Protein Hydrolysate A unique natural milk protein fraction that contains a natural bioactive peptide with relaxing properties. Has anti-anxiety effects without side effectssuch as drowsiness. Human studies show benefit for mental and physical symptoms of stress, improved sleep and reduced levels of the stress hormone cortisol. An experimental study suggests benefit for stress related sweet cravings and overeating. Safe for lactose intolerant people and hypoallergenic (avoid in true anaphylactic dairy allergy). 17 Theanine A natural amino acid with relaxing and cognitive enhancing properties derived from green tea. Human clinical studies suggest stress relieving and mood enhancing effects. May also improve mental performance under stress. Experimental studies suggest cognitive performance enhancing, anti-stress, anti-depressant and neuroprotectiveactivities. 18 9
10 Stress Stress (increased cortisol) lowers progesterone and increases oestrogen effect Stress (increased spent cortisol) increases inflammation Stress (increased cortisol) increases insulin resistance which increases aromatase 19 Insulin resistance & PCOS Most women with PCOS are metabolically insulin resistant, in part due to genetic predisposition and in part secondary to obesity. In the past 20 years there has been growing evidence supporting that defects in insulin actions or in the insulin signalling pathways are central in the pathogenesis of the syndrome J Steroid Biochem Mol Biol Oct;122(1-3):
11 Not all PCOS patients are obese Approximately 50% of women with polycystic ovary syndrome are lower than BMI 25kg/m 2 Womens Health (Lond Engl) Sep;5(5): Body composition determines insulin sensitivity Eaton SB, Cordain L, Sparling PB. Prev Med Aug 15. [Epub ahead of print] 22 11
12 Insulin & Cortisol Balance Powdered Myoinositol, vitamin B6, Magnesium & Calcium Magnesium Technical Review 23 What is Myo-inositol? Myo-inositol is a naturally occurring isomer of glucose and has been shown in studies to play several important roles in supporting fertility. In particular, it has been shown to support healthy ovaries, ovulation, follicular function and egg development. It has also been shown to be helpful in supporting insulin control and androgen dominance in those with ovarian issues. As the second messenger of serotonin, myo-inositol has also shown some success in supporting mood and behaviour in the premenstrual phase of women s hormone cycles. 24 Magnesium Technical Review 12
13 Myo-Inositol improves insulin resistance in women with PCOS Insulin sensitivity significantly improved in this study of 20 overweight PCOS patients. Also after 12 weeks of myo-inositol administration, presented plasma LH, PRL, T, insulin levels and LH/FSH reduced. Furthermore menstrual cyclicity was restored in all amenorrhoic and oligomenorrhoic subjects. European Journal of Obstetrics & Gynecology 25 and Reproductive Biology 147 (2009) Balancing insulin with myo-inositol results in improved hormone levels A combination of the contraceptive pill (OCP) and myo-inositol (4 grams daily for 12 months) has been shown to be more effective in controlling the endocrine, metabolic and clinical profile in patients with PCOS than the OCP alone, and also reduced insulin levels and insulin resistance. Minozzi M, Gynecol Endocrinol. Nov;27(11):
14 Powdered Myo-Inositol, Vitamin B6, Magnesium & Calcium Featuring myo-inositol: clinical research has demonstrated an important role of myo-inositol in female health Clinical doses of myo-inositol are best achieved in powdered delivery Also contains vitamin B6, which contributes to the regulation of hormonal activity Contains magnesium and calcium, which both contribute to normal muscle function Mixes easily into water or juice to make a refreshing easily-digested drink Tasty orange flavour 27 Powdered Myo-Inositol, Vitamin B6, Magnesium & Calcium One scoop supplies: Magnesium mg Vitamin B mg Vitamin B mg Vitamin B mg Vitamin B mg Vitamin B mg Vitamin C mg L-glutamine mg Calcium mg Myo-inositol mg Folic acid mcg Manganese mg Vitamin E 100 IU mg Recommendation: 1-2 servings per day Magnesium Clinical Guide 28 14

23 Diet and environment can disrupt hormonal balance Obesityup-regulates conversion of androgens to oestrogens via aromatase. Hyperinsulinaemiaincreases ovarian testosterone production and reduces SHBG, increasing free oestrogen levels. Low antioxidant intake may promote the formation of 2-OH and 4-OH oestrogens. High fatdietspromote a high 16-OH: 2-OH ratio. Alcohol interferes with oestrogen detoxification, increasing levels and breast cancer risk. Environmental toxins, hormones and antibioticsin the food supply may disrupt hormonal balance. Hyman MA.

24 Dietary Guidelines for PCOS Minimise sugar, simple carbs, alcohol, and caffeine. Eat organic if possible, with emphasise on brassica vegetables. Minimise xenoestrogen exposure. 47 Pure & Fresh Omega-3 Fish Oil Nutrient Deficiencies Vitamin D Powdered Myoinositol, vitamin B6, Magnesium & Calcium 48 24
25 Pure & Fresh Omega-3 Fish Oil Nutrient Deficiencies Fish Oil Technical Review 49 Supplementation with n-3 PUFA improves androgenic profiles in PCOS A greater plasma n-6 PUFA concentration and n-6:n-3 PUFA ratio were associated with higher circulating androgens in women with PCOS. In addition, long chain n-3 PUFA supplementation reduced plasma bioavailable testosterone concentrations (P, 0.05), with the greatest reductions in subjects who exhibited greater reductions in plasma n-6:n-3 PUFA ratios. 50 Am J Clin Nutr 2011;93:

27 Vitamin D Status & PCOS 67-85% of women with PCOS have levels of vitamin D <50nmol/l. This low level of vitamin D may exacerbate the disorder. Lower vitamin D status is associated with: Insulin resistance Ovulatory & menstrual irregularities Lower pregnancy success Hirsutism Hyperandrogenism Obesity and elevated cardiovascular risk factors 53 Clinical Endocrinology (2012) 77, Correcting deficiency Recommended Regime: 50,000 IU of vitamin D once a week for 8 weeks (in most patients blood levels of 25 (OH)D will rise on average by 100%) Vitamin D Clinical Guide 54 27
