As of today, PCOS is now known as PMOS - Polyendocrine Metabolic Ovarian Syndrome 💡 A change that reflects a growing recognition that it is far more complex and systemic than previously understood. For the women’s health community, terminology matters!

I’ve been educating my clients for YEARS that cysts are not a diagnostic factor, but simply a symptom of a bigger hormone dysregulation that needs to be tested and treated.

If you have been diagnosed with PCOS, you need to be familiar with your:
✔️ Insulin
✔️ Glucose
✔️ Androgens
✔️ Cortisol

If you’ve never been educated on how these affect your symptoms - or never been tested - DM me “labs” and I will send you the list of tests I ensure all my clients have before working 1:1 with me 🤍

* Disclaimer: this is what worked for me. As a qualified Clinical Nutritionist, I knew these decisions were right for my body. Individualised guidance is always recommended to know what’s right for you.

#1 COMPREHENSIVE GUT TESTING
The fact that acne can clear with strong antibiotics proves the significant role gut health plays in skin health.

If nothing seems to be working - comprehensive gut testing is your answer. It identifies hormone detox issues & gluten sensitivity without guesswork.

💡 is what I did & what I refer my Acne clients for. Gluten elimination has been game changing for my skin.

#2 COMING OFF THE PILL
If your doctor is throwing different pills at you to ‘see if they work’ - this is going to prolong your acne healing journey.

Each time you try a new contraceptive pill, it provides you with different doses of hormones.

Each of which your liver, gut & brain need to adjust to - the adjustment period always results in breakouts.

💡 The pill is not “balancing” your hormones

#3 LEARNING TO TRACK MY CYCLE
Relying on an app to tell you when you’re ovulating - without properly understanding if you are - could be delaying healing hormonal imbalances.

Look into cervical mucous tracking, basal body temperature tracking and blood tests - take out the guesswork.

💡 The Apple health app cycle tracking is FREE and provides great metrics to track cycle health

Shoutout to my Mum on Mothers Day!! 📣 58 and arguably the healthiest she has ever been.

She is a prime example of how small, consistent efforts work far better than quick fixes and fads. She shows up for everyone around her, but more importantly has learnt to show up for herself over the last few years.

It has looked like:
💪 3x per week strength training
☕️ Learning to eat a protein packed breakfast rather than skip meals and rely on coffee
🥦 Building more nourishing meals with at least 1/3 of her plate as salad or veg
🩸 Not just saying “everything is fine” and being proactive to get nutrient levels & bone density checked
💊 Having a simple supplement regime that she sticks to (rather than buying random things from chemist warehouse 🙈)

🤍 If you’re on my mailing list, check your inbox (spam too just in case!) - I have a special offer to celebrate Mothers Day for this week only x

I’ve actually had a doctor ask me “how do you manage IBS? We’re just told to give a FODMAP handout” 😬

This is why so many women feel stuck with their symptoms - the constant bloat, unsatisfying bowel movements, not feeling hungry as food never feels properly digested… you need far more care than a food list.

I won’t gatekeep here, this is where I’d start:

#1 Address Your Stress!
Being in fight or flight mode shunts blood flow and energy away from your digestive system. Start being mindful of chewing your food properly, putting your fork down between mouthfuls and taking some calming breaths before meals (trust me)

#2 Change Your Magnesium
Don’t be taking Magnesium Oxide. Magnesium glycinate is better to regulate your whole nervous system, but Magnesium Citrate is actually more implicated for helping bowel regularity and softening bowel motions to be easier and more regular to pass.

#3 Stop Being Low Calorie
The protein bars with erythritiol/maltitol, the single piece of fruit or the two rice cakes with cottage cheese are all higher fermentable foods - for chronic bloating, you will need to change your mindet and not be afraid of healthy fats! They slow digestion to reduce speed of gas production for many people.

#4 Test Don’t Guess
If everything feels like a trigger, there’s usually something deeper going on. I refer my clients for comprehensive stool testing to see gut bacterial balance, inflammation markers, gut pH and any infectious bacteria that could be driving symptoms.

Swipe for some very important lessons from my own hormonal acne journey - that could save YOU lots of time, stress, disappointment & money 🤍

If you’re ready to look into the root cause of your Acne with somebody who has been where you are & has a deep understanding of both - see my 1:1 support link in bio 🔗

We will start with an Initial Consultation and discuss the best road ahead - whether that’s a GP referral, hormone testing, comprehensive gut testing or simple dietary swaps to start.

Menopause “belly” isn’t random - it’s a predictable shift in physiology.

As oestrogen declines, fat distribution, insulin signalling, and muscle mass all change. This is why many women feel like their usual strategies suddenly stop working.

If we want a different outcome, we need a more targeted approach 💭

Here’s what the evidence consistently supports:

1. Test insulin sensitivity�This is foundational. Reduced insulin sensitivity drives central fat storage - particularly through the abdomen.�Markers like fasting insulin, HOMA-IR, or post-meal glucose can help identify whether this is a key driver for you.

2. Prioritise strength training�Muscle is one of the most powerful tools we have to improve insulin sensitivity.�Consistent resistance training helps shift body composition, not just weight.

3. Aim for ~7,000+ steps daily�Low-intensity movement improves glucose uptake independent of formal exercise.�This is one of the simplest, most underutilised tools.

4. Protein: ~1.4g/kg body weight�Higher protein intake supports muscle maintenance, satiety, and metabolic health - all critical during menopause. This doesn’t mean protein bars and shakes all day, with the right guidance hitting these protein targets is easy.

5. Choose high-fibre carbohydrates�Think legumes, whole grains, vegetables.�Fibre slows glucose absorption, supports gut health, and improves insulin response.

6. Support oestrogen where appropriate�For some women, this may include HRT.�For others, targeted nutritional and herbal support can assist oestrogen metabolism and symptom management - but this should always be individualised.

👉 This isn’t about eating less & putting your body under more stress, it’s about working with your changing physiology and creating an INDIVIDUALISED AND SUPPORTIVE plan.

Carbs aren’t the issue! It’s that they’re often eaten in excess and not balanced with significant fibre & protein (which keep you full and stop said ‘excess’ carb consumption).

It brings me great joy to bring pasta, rice and potatoes back into peoples lives through the recipes I create.

You NEVER have the cut them out.

Even in cases of insulin resistance (such as PCOS or Perimenopause) I have my clients eating pasta dishes if they enjoy them - I just expertly balance them with enough fibre and protein (and add extra veggies) to help them enjoy a comforting meal but still stay on track.

✨ If you’re looking for expertly balanced recipes that won’t leave you feeling like you’re missing out - The Nourish Club is for you. All recipes include how to adjust for lower carb goals & vegetarian diets.
