PCOS and ketogenic diet?

Question

I work in the medical field and have PCOS, so I'm constantly in contact with other women with the same issues.  One yesterday mentioned she was told the keto diet is amazing to help manage, do any of you have experience with the keto diet? And what is you opinion on how is has helped or not?

Answer

I eat low carb and see a big difference. Still working on regulating my cycles and hormones, but it’s only been 6 weeks.

Answer

Be mindful of you carbs, especially food made w/ refined flours. I would say stay away from the keto diet especially if you’re trying to get pregnant. It is a very strict diet that is unrealistic to maintain. In addition, a growing fetus needs carbs to grow. A diet of protein and healthy fats is not enough.
