You got the diagnosis. They handed you metformin. And you either felt awful on it, or you're sitting there wondering if there's another way — and nobody's told you what else you can actually do. Insulin is a hormone, girl. Just like progesterone and estrogen. Which means it's sitting right in the middle of your hormone balance whether anyone mentioned it to you or not. In this episode, you'll learn the six-step roadmap to balance your blood sugar naturally, how to get real data on your own body instead of guessing from what the internet told you, and the supplement one study found outperformed metformin in women with PCOS.
