@dr.mehss: Women with PCOS are often insulin resistant; their bodies can make insulin but can't use it effectively, increasing their risk for type 2 diabetes and PCOS women are more prone to experiencing gut dysbiosis compared to those without the condition. Additionally, in certain individuals, constipation may be attributed to small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO), a type of dysbiosis characterized by an excessive presence of bacteria in the small intestine.Now the bacteria within the small intestines love to feed on sugar. So if we have an insulin resistant picture, this can be a contributing factor to a SIBO picture, as the build-up of sugar can help to feed that bacterial overgrowth in the small intestines.All of these can have complications as shown above. #sibo #smallintestinebacteriaovergrowth #bacterialovergrowth #insulinresistance #diabetestype2 #pcos #pcosawareness #medicine #skincare #health #acne #science #foryou #foryou #foryoupage #foryourpage #fyp
