The first complete guide to thriving with PCOS (aka PMOS), offering a science-backed, holistic path to managing symptoms, plus 68 recipes and 6 meal plans Rapid weight gain at puberty, a dodgy period that you’d almost rather not show up, or cystic acne that you were told was just your hormones. Maybe you went on the Pill to “fix” your hormones, only to discover years later that there was more to the acne and irregular periods than you realized. Sound familiar? You may be among the one in ten women who experience Polyendocrine Metabolic Ovarian Syndrome, an endocrine disorder that’s a leading cause of infertility, weight gain, and irregular periods. As a registered dietitian who also has PMOS, Cory Ruth is here to tell you that it’s a condition that you can thrive with. Cory has helped thousands of women regulate their periods, lose weight, have healthy babies, and heal their hormones. The medical community typically prescribes the birth control pill to reduce unwanted symptoms, but in order to see lasting changes you’ll need to get to the root of the condition. The path to true healing lies with making shifts in nutrition, stress management, and exercise. In PCOS Is My Power, Cory walks you through the science and stories before offering a treatment protocol that includes lifestyle and supplement recommendations, meal plans, and recipes like Carrot Cake Breakfast Cookies, Sriracha Cauliflower Chickpea Sheet Bake, and Peanut Tofu Bowl. It’s time for you to balance your hormones, feel more in control, and live your healthiest and happiest life.
