MyOva, a leading women’s hormonal health brand, is launching into 100 Boots stores nationwide from 14th October 2024. MyOva’s expertly formulated supplements utilise scientifically-backed ingredients to help women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS), an endocrine disorder that affects one in ten women, to manage their menstrual health and aid fertility, allowing women to regulate, restore and reclaim their physical and mental well-being.
PCOS is characterised by ovulatory dysfunction (irregular or absent menstrual periods or absence of ovulation altogether), metabolic changes (such as obesity and insulin resistance) and hyperandrogenism (e.g. excessive hair growth and acne). MyOva’s range of supplements contain Myo-Inositol (MI), a naturally occurring sugar alcohol found in dietary sources such as fruits, vegetables, nuts and cereals. MI acts as an intracellular messenger to regulate several hormones including thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and insulin. There is much interest in the role of MI in the management of people living with PCOS, and a number of studies show that MI may reduce PCOS symptoms, restore ovulation, increase fertility and improve egg quality. Living with PCOS can affect every area of your life, from emotional health and self-esteem, to body image and sexual confidence. Women with PCOS are at risk of pregnancy complications and long-term health impediments including type-2 diabetes and depression.
