Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome
Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome is defined as endocrinologic diseases among reproductive-age women caused by undeveloped follicles clumping on the ovaries that interferes with the function of the normal ovaries associated with a high risk for metabolic disorder(1) as resulting of enlarged ovaries(2), leading to hormone imbalance(excessive androgen and anti-müllerian hormone (AMH) )(1)(3)(4)(5), induced Hirsutism(6)(7), reproductive disorder(10(12)), risks of type 2 diabetes(9)(10)(11), metabolic syndrome(10)(12) and early cardiovasular disease(8)(13), acne(10)(14), endometrial cance(18)(19),weight gain and obesity(15)(16)(17). The syndrome effects over 5% of women population or 1 in 20 women.
Unfortunately, according to studies, women with PCOs after the reproductive age, are associated to continuously increase risk of type II diabetes, with no increasing altered glucose tolerance(20), CVD and hypertension(21).
The prevention and management
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is unpreventable in Western medicine. Early diagnosis and treatment may reduce risk of its complications, including infertility, metabolic syndrome, obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, stroke, etc.
In Weight Loss Perspective
Weight loss(733)(734) for obese patients is one of most vital factor to reduce PCOs symptoms(735)(737) and risk of PCOs complications(736)(737). Some researchers found that 5-10% of weight low will improve PCOs features(737) by 25%, including pregnancy(738). How can you lose weight and maintain healthy body for a healthy conception?
The Best PCOs Diet for weight loss
Most women with PCOs are likely overweight or obese according to BMI index. Most diet plans require the endurance and determination of the participants(750).
1. Complex carbohydrate, low protein and only unsaturated fat diet
This is the one which I have made for my diabetic friends, it works well for her. The plan not only helps to stabilize her blood sugar, but also maintain her weight within the normal range of BMI index. If you would like to try, please first consult with your doctor.
a) No Simple sugar
b) Only eat vegetables (prefer rainbow colors), nuts, seeds and limited intake of fruits containing high amount of sugar such as melon. Fruits only should be eaten as soon as after each meal.
b) Limited intake of protein to 1/3 of the daily amount. Meat must be lean (prefer chicken breast) and eat together with vegetables and fruits to further delay the release of sugar.
c) Only use unsaturated fat as toping. Stirring is allowed with occasional fried foods and others.
d) Drink at least 8 cups of pure water and milk ( prefer one cup of green tea and a cup of morning coffee with no sugar and a little bit milk). Since vegetables contain high amount of fiber, drinking more water can prevent constipation.
e) 1/4 table spoon of cinnamon each in the morning and evening. It is said that cinnamon stimulates the production of insulin(752) and regulates the blood sugar in the blood stream(753).
The diet works well for her in maintaining the healthy weight and stabilizing and lowering the blood sugar. Since she does not have PCOs and problem of infertility, it is for your benefit to check with your doctor before applying.
2. Low carbohydrate and high protein diet (Modified diet with a high-protein, low-glycemic load (30% of daily energy from protein plus low-glycemic-load foods)
This is a type of diet most recommended by dietitian for women with PCOs and wanted to get pregnant.
a) If you have symptoms of PCOs and absence of period, you must see your doctor before attempting any weight loss program.
b) If you have kidney problem, do not attempt this program
c) If you have symptoms of PCOs and irregular menstrual period, this diet plan is helpful
The low carbohydrate diet and high protein diet limits daily intake of amount of carbohydrate and encourages you to take a high amount of protein without restricting yourself to the amount of fat intake. With low levels of carbohydrate in the body, you body needs to burn its fat stores for energy, leading to weight loss(754) and lowering the levels of asting LDL-cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol, glucose, insulin, free fatty acid, and C-reactive protein concentrations(754). In theory, it works well for women with PCOs because by suppressing the levels of insulin(755)(756), The diet improves ovulation(755) and reduce the levels of testosterone(756). It is also recommended that you also engage in moderate exercise to improved the physical fitness level of healthy, pregnant as well(757)(758).
