Wow..that stuff IS very expensive. Is regular inositol just as good? I found some online..and it was rather cheap.

Hello everyone! I am new and trying to figure out a plan of action. Like you, I prefer to go the natural route. My question is: How do you know which supplements to take? Thanks in advance!

Hi all! I was recently diagnosed in April and am new to all this. I am taking Cinnamon capsules and vitex everyday. My doctor prescribed Spiro for me, and it seems to be working ok, but I would rather go the natural route. No, I am not TTC right now. Besides, I just quit my job in order to go to graduate school full time, so I don't have insurance to pay for my medications anymore. I have read the study and find it interesting. I am thinking of ordering some but I am kinda scared!

Hi ladies, I am over 2 wks into taking Hyponidd. I hope to try it for a while. It seems like with PCOS there are no fast fixes. We have to really give it time. I am also taking Cinnamon and Milk thistle ect

Pearl1981 · 08-07-2007, 08:01 AM

The study results were taken after 3 months for both hyponidd and metformin. I would say to carry it on for 4 months and see if you have seen an improvement then. Im on day 17 and no ovulation yet...

I stopped taking saw palmetto again (incidently the last time I stopped it I didnt have a period for 3 months) have started the saw palmetto again today just incase

Right well Ive been feeling exhausted since uping my dose of hyponidd to two times twice daily. Absolutely shattered. The weights coming off though. I wonder why I am so tired.

Herbs how r u hun?

Pearl- I am feeling GREAT< GREAT GREAT, on 2 tabs Hyponidd, 2x daily (4 a day total) I am ordering more Hyponidd tommarow. I felt really wierd when I first started all my supplements (Milk Thistle Cinnamon) and Im not sure if If that was when I was taking Hyponidd or not, but I am really doing good on it. Today I took it 30 min+ before breakfast on an empty stomach with warm water. I just read that some things absorb into your body better with warm water, 30 min before meal.

Maybe the fatigue you are detoxing? I hope you can try the Hyponidd!!

Pearl1981 · 08-10-2007, 08:04 AM

Hi Herbs!!!

Im so happy you feel good!! Thats great! I feel very exhausted but I will continue the tablets, as it is proof it is doing *something* to me. I do know that met causes the same tiredness due to reactive hypoglycemia after eating and I think this is doing the same thing.

Have you noticed any changes?

I havent attended acupuncture regularly this month and my cycle is very delayed.

I take the hyponidd half an hour before food or with food if I forget!

The Dr said that was fine but warm water is better!

My acupuncturist told me to keep taking the hyponidd and wait around 6 months to see results.

I know it takes 3-6 months for met to help in the studies. I really wanted a quicker outcome but I guess it didnt take us a day to get into this state so it wont take us a day to get out of it!
