Description

What is PCOS?

Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is a hormonal disorder that affects women of reproductive age. It is characterized by:  

• Irregular periods: Missed or infrequent periods.
• Excess androgen: Increased levels of male hormones, leading to symptoms like acne, excessive hair growth, and weight gain.
• Polycystic ovaries: The presence of small fluid-filled sacs within the ovaries.

How Seed Cycling Helps Regulate PCOS

Seed cycling is a dietary approach that involves consuming specific seeds at different phases of the menstrual cycle to help balance hormones and regulate menstrual cycles. While more research is needed to fully understand its mechanisms, here are some potential ways in which seed cycling might help regulate PCOS:

• Reducing androgen levels: Some seeds, like flaxseeds and pumpkin seeds, contain compounds that may help lower excess testosterone, a common issue in PCOS.
• Supporting estrogen balance: The lignans in flaxseeds can help regulate estrogen levels, which can be disrupted in PCOS.
• Support ovulation: Improve the chances of regular ovulation and conception.
• Improving progesterone levels: Sesame seeds and sunflower seeds may contain compounds that can support progesterone production, which is often low in PCOS.

Phases of Cycles in Which Seeds Take

Seed cycling is typically done in two phases, aligned with the follicular and luteal phases of the menstrual cycle:

1. 1. Follicular phase (days 1-14): Consume flaxseeds and pumpkin seeds. These seeds can help support estrogen dominance and regulate ovulation.
   2. Luteal phase (days 15-28): Consume sesame seeds and sunflower seeds. These seeds can help balance progesterone levels and support the luteal phase.

Daily Intake of Seeds for PCOS

• Flaxseeds: 1-2 tablespoons (15-30 grams)
• Pumpkin seeds: 1-2 tablespoons (15-30 grams)
• Sesame seeds: 1 tablespoon (15 grams)
• Sunflower seeds: 1-2 tablespoons (15-30 grams)

For how long should I do seed cycling?

It’s generally recommended to start with a trial period of 2-3 months to assess the effects of seed cycling on your PCOS symptoms. Remember, consistency is key when it comes to seed cycling.
