PCOS 101

A Beginner’s Guide to PCOS

Do you wish you had a comprehensive guide where you could find everything you needed to know about PCOS and your health all in one place?

It’s all yours in PCOS 101: A Beginner’s Guide to PCOS.

I put this masterclass together to give you the basic information that I saw many of my clients desperately needed when they were diagnosed with PCOS. They had questions like:

What do I need to be concerned about moving forward outside of just fertility?

What symptoms are caused by PCOS? What aren’t?

Do I have insulin resistance?

Which labs should I monitor?

All of these questions and more are answered inside PCOS 101!

What you’ll learn in this masterclass:
  • What PCOS is and what we currently know about what causes it
  • How PCOS is diagnosed
  • What to look for if you’re concerned you were misdiagnosed
  • Symptoms caused by PCOS
  • Symptoms NOT caused by PCOS that indicate further medical evaluation
  • What you should monitor for your long term health
  • Which labs could be beneficial for monitoring
  • How to tell if you have insulin resistance
What’s included in PCOS 101:
  • Immediate access to a 60-minute masterclass
  • Downloadable e-guide that summarizes masterclass material

A NOTE FROM SAM

pcos registered dietitian

I’m so glad you’ve found your way to the PCOS 101: A Beginner’s Guide to PCOS. 

When I first began PCOS nutrition education, my very first stop with educating clients was called “Understanding PCOS”. We went through everything I saw that my clients were not educated on when it comes to PCOS, what it is, and how it affects the body. I consistently received feedback from clients that they loved this material and wished they had received all of this information when they were first diagnosed.

And now you can have that information, too.

No one should be diagnosed with a medical condition and be told to “just lose weight” or “come back when you want to get pregnant”. This masterclass can give you the tools to take charge of your PCOS and conversations with your healthcare team!

Frequently Asked Questions

Absolutely! Anyone may enroll in this masterclass with the disclaimer that it was created in the United States. All information and lab values are U.S.-based.

PCOS Bestie, I feel you! So many of my clients tell me that they feel overwhelmed with their PCOS. A big piece of this overwhelm is trying to figure out your diagnosis on your own. This is why I created PCOS 101 – so you don’t have to!

This masterclass is for you! You’ll learn how PCOS is diagnosed so you know what questions to ask your doctor.

Since I’m not a pharmacist or doctor, medication advice is not included in this masterclass. However, you will get plenty of information to help you navigate future conversations with your healthcare team about medications!

Do you find the topic of dairy and PCOS to be conf Do you find the topic of dairy and PCOS to be confusing? 👇🏼 Here are some things to know:⁣
➡️ There’s no conclusive research that indicates you need to eliminate dairy just because you have PCOS.
➡️ There is research indicating that it’s better for PCOS if you switch to full-fat dairy.
➡️ Eliminating dairy may help acne in some cases, but this is individualized. I always recommend switching to full-fat first before doing a trial elimination. The fat is better for insulin levels and androgen levels.
➡️ Nutrition is individualized. If you don’t do well dairy because you have an intolerance or feel like it has helped you then do what works for you.

So much of the nutrition advice for insulin resistance and lowering blood sugar with PCOS is unnecessarily restrictive and can leave you feeling frustrated and overwhelmed. 😭
There are so many strategies we can implement to balance blood sugar while enjoying carbs, a couple of which are looking at the type of pasta or pairing pasta with protein and fat. 
Being diagnosed with prediabetes or type 2 diabetes may feel scary, but it is possible to feel more at peace with food choices and to enjoy food!

Have you ever impulsively purchased a “gadget” Have you ever impulsively purchased a “gadget” that promised to give you clarity when it came to your health….
…but then you ended up more overwhelmed, more confused, and out a few hundred dollars? 
Sure, there may a time and place for some of these health gadgets like a smart ring, apple watch, CGM, etc, but I don’t recommend it to be your first line of treatment.
A member from my recent group coaching program shared that she found great improvement in her insulin resistance by eating breakfast.
Breakfast is GOOD, but it’s not a bright, shiny object promising you data that makes you feel more “in control” of something. It’s not a hot selling point. It’s not a “sexy” piece of advice that sounds too good to be true. But it’s simple and something any of you listening can try. And often that’s all you need.
Focusing on simple shifts + listening to our body can be more valuable than any gadget because (believe it or not) YOU know your body better than anyone or anything else. 
I share some more reflection of what my group coaching members found helpful in the post recent episode of the Nourished with PCOS podcast!
In episode 34, you can hear about:
-Where to start with healing binge eating
-What to look for with your support system
-Why the small things matter the most with PCOS
