@thepcosmentor: Do you experience darkening of the skin in areas such as the neck, armpits & groin? did you know that it could be related to this skin condition? Acanthosis nigricans is actually quite common among those with PCOS. And while it's not a symptom of PCOS itself, it is quite prevalent due to how common issues with high insulin & insulin resistance are. I've spoken with a few ladies who were told that this is dirty skin and they need to have better hygiene but nothing could be further from the truth. Again, this is hormonally driven, NOT caused by bad hygiene! Due to it being driven by high insulin, addressing and naturally balancing insulin is the way to improve acanthosis nigricans, here are some tips! 1) Keep your blood sugar levels as balanced as possible by prioritizing protein > healthy fats > complex carbs 2) Prioritize building muscle from weight training 3) Prioritize improving the quality of your sleep by sticking to uniform sleep / wake times, limiting screen time in the evenings. 4) Give inositol (3-4g) or NAC (1.5g) a try If you're looking for an incredible range of targeted supplements all backed by research, 1000's of reviews, with worldwide shipping + FREE shipping options.
