    PCOS is often associated with insulin resistance, as most cases are linked to insulin resistance where cells do not properly respond to the hormone insulin. Insulin resistance can cause PCOS since insulin and sex hormones are linked, and managing insulin levels is important for those with PCOS as controlling insulin means controlling PCOS symptoms, which can be helped by the diabetes medication Metformin.

    PCOS and insulin resistance

    I bet you didn’t know that PCOS is often associated with insulin resistance! Yes, most PCOS
    cases are found to be linked with insulin resistance.

    Insulin resistance is when our body’s cells do-not respond to the hormone insulin.

    Since insulin and other sex hormones are intimately linked, insulin resistance can cause PCOS.

    PCOS and insulin resistance thus have many common symptoms.

    And also, Metformin - a prescription medication for diabetes can help manage PCOS
    symptoms.

    Therefore, it is important for those with PCOS to manage their insulin levels. Remember, taking
    control over insulin means taking control over PCOS.
