A member asked:

I have pcos with irregular periods and produce more male hormones, should i try taking myo-inositol?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Myoinositol: No patient should take a prescription medicine that has not been prescribed by your own doctor! With your concerns you need to see a gynecologist.
