MINI PODCAST: What’s the first thing you should do after getting a PCOS diagnosis, egg reserves, cycle tracking apps and sugar cravings

Welcome back to another Mini PCOS Pod! This week is a mixed bag when it comes to questions - we’re talking sugar cravings, pregnancy, what to do straight after a diagnosis, period / ovulation tracking apps and egg reserves with the Pill.There are still a few strangling questions off the back of the birth control podcast so I’m talking about those first while they’re top of mind for everyone, and then tackle the rest following that. PCOS doesn’t just affect fertility though. Yeah, it’s called poly-cystic OVARIAN syndrome but that doesn’t mean the ovaries are the only thing affected! PCOS affects so many different things, which is why your symptoms span beyond your reproductive system - like hair loss, unwanted hair growth, acne, weight gain. Which is also why finding and working on that root cause is SO so important.This episode is for you if:You’ve just been diagnosed with PCOSYou’re trying to conceive at a heavier weightYou need advice on coping on both the mental and physical cravings for sugarYou’re on the PillSome things we cover in this episode:What the very next step is after getting a PCOS diagnosisWhat to expect with pregnancy at a heavier weightWhether being diagnosed with PCOS spectrum changes the approach to resolution at allHow to cope with with sugar cravings - the physical desire and the mental battleThe best apps for fertility awareness on contraceptionWhether or not your egg reserves aren’t being depleted if you’re in the Pill (which suppresses ovulation)Relevant Episodes:SEASON 1 EPISODE 1: TREATING THE ROOT CAUSESEASON 1 EPISODE 7: WHAT THOSE HANGRY ATTACKS ARE TELLING YOU ABOUT YOUR PCOS ROOT CAUSESEASON 2 EPISODE 1: HOW TO GET PREGNANT WITH PCOSSEASON 3 EPISODE 1: THE SINGLE BIGGEST FACTOR FOR GETTING PREGNANT- AND YOU’RE IN CONTROL OF ITSEASON 3 EPISODE 8: U HANGRY HUN?
