• Angela Grassi November 5, 2018 at 2:01 pm Every woman is different so I suggest you talk with your doctor if she/he wants you to continue. Ovasitol has been shown to lower the risk for gestational diabetes: http://www.pcosnutrition.com/inositols-decrease-gestational-diabetes-pcos-women/

• Citlaly November 2, 2018 at 10:32 pm Can Ovasitol help you get pregnant?

• Deborah November 5, 2018 at 1:23 pm Hi, I posted a question on another post related to Ovasitol and I thought of another question. Is there a possibility this supplement can cause weight gain? You describe the mechanism and enhancing insulin sensitivity…that would increase the amount of glucose that can enter cells. As seen with insulin injections in those with DM, can this promote weight gain? Thank you

• Angela Grassi November 5, 2018 at 1:51 pm Ovasitol is not associated with weight gain.

• Mallory January 25, 2019 at 6:08 pm Hi, does Ovasitol have the same benefits for women who aren’t diagnosed with PCOS ?

• Angela Grassi February 6, 2019 at 8:48 am The research isn’t clear yet. There is emerging research that inositol, the component in Ovasitol can help those with diabetes:http://www.pcosnutrition.com/can-inositol-benefit-type-2-diabetes/

• Amy February 6, 2019 at 7:21 am Hi, I have only been taking Ovasitol for a week now but I forgot to take a dose before leaving for work this morning. Can I take a double dose in the evening to still get my 2 scoops/day? Thanks, Amy

• Angela Grassi February 6, 2019 at 8:45 am Could you take it at lunch? Research shows it’s best to spread Ovasitol throughout the day instead of 2 at the same time.

• Lilia February 18, 2019 at 2:32 am Can it help with hair on the head to grow back / stop the shedding due high testosterone & insulin resistant ??

I skipped several periods and my Dr would put me on Provera to get my period. I am now on my 3rd round of clomid on a higher dose (1000 mg). I didn’t ovulate last cycle and progesterone levels were low. Getting an ultrasound on day 12 of this cycle to check my follicles. Would Ovasitol help me at all???? I also have endometriosis.

• Fran July 29, 2019 at 9:22 am Hi! My daughter is 13 and recently diagnosed with PCOS with elevated insulin levels. May I ask how a child her age should be dosed with the product?

• KikiTheWitch September 11, 2019 at 11:55 am Hi, I am interested in your product, and I would like to know if you have a source for the claim that ovasitol reduces DHEAS levels? Thanks

• Angela Grassi September 11, 2019 at 2:40 pm Hello, Yes there are several studies that show that myo and d-chiro inositol the ingredients in Ovasitol help to decrease DHEAS levels. Here are a few to check ou: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/27493664 https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24351072

• Joy September 19, 2019 at 7:51 pm I can I double the dosage at night if I forget to take it in the morning?

• Nina September 24, 2019 at 5:33 am Hello , I do not have PCOS but I do have insulin resistance. Can I benefit from taking mayo inositol or is this just recommended for women with PCOS?

• Angela Grassi October 3, 2019 at 6:08 pm Myo inositol can benefit people who don’t have PCOS. It depends what you want to take it for. For example, it has been shown to lower glucose and insulin, improve fertility and help with anxiety in non-pcos patients.

• Geeta September 25, 2019 at 9:09 am Does ovasitol cause hypoglycemia? I took the first scoop today after lunch and after 3-4 hours I started feeling dizzy,feeling of lightheadedness and gastritis.Are these effects due to ovasitol.? Please help.

• Angela Grassi October 3, 2019 at 6:06 pm Ovasitol may lower blood glucose level. For that reason, we recommend having it with a meal. We also recommend balanced meals with carbs, protein, and fats to balance blood sugar levels best. I recommend starting with just one dose per day for the first week to make sure you tolerate it ok.

• Nina October 4, 2019 at 9:17 pm Hi, how long does it take for ovasitol to start working in your body and notice a change;.?

• Angela Grassi October 8, 2019 at 12:28 pm Nina, everyone is different but most of my clients see a reduction in cravings within the first 2 weeks. We do recommend giving it the full 3 months to see a benefit in regulating your cycles.

• Angela Grassi December 12, 2019 at 10:12 am if it’s only been a short time of taking Ovasitol, I doubt that it is from it. We recommend giving ovasitol a good 3 months to help regulate your cycle and improve fertility.

Thank you for your answer admin.

• Angela Grassi March 4, 2020 at 9:09 am Hello, Ovasitol should not cause these symptoms. The symptoms you are describing could indicate pregnancy. If she is not pregnant, and symptoms continue, she could cut back to once a day and see how that is for her.

I just ordered a 3 month supply of Ovasitol & I’m currently confused by what I should do with getting off of the pills. Should I finish a pack then start the ovasitol or should I start taking the Ovasitol immediately then stop once I finish the pack of birth control pills? Help please

• Angela Grassi March 23, 2020 at 10:57 am Hello, there is not a need to stop birth control pills while on Ovasitol unless you want to. Otherwise, it’s fine to start taking Ovasitol at any time.

• Jyothi April 2, 2020 at 5:54 pm How long can I use this suppliment. Is there a time limit? I currently use metformin and would like to switch to Ovasitol.

• Angela Grassi April 3, 2020 at 10:29 am There isn’t a set amount of time. A lot of people use it for years because they see their symptoms return after a few weeks of stopping it. You can start it while taking Metformin. The two can be taken together. Read this article for more info: https://www.pcosnutrition.com/ovasitol-review/

• Angela Grassi April 24, 2020 at 11:04 am Thanks! No, we do not know yet if lean women with PCOS respond differently to Ovasitol.

• MJ April 23, 2020 at 1:18 pm Hi there – Can you take Ovasitol if you have not been diagnosed with PCOS but have not ovulated in a year (and suspect you have PCOS). Are there any negative side effects to women who may have normal hormonal levels? Thanks in advance!

• Angela Grassi April 24, 2020 at 11:03 am Yes you can take Ovasitol if you don’t have PCOS. While research is limited, it may help to improve fertility and ovulation in non-PCOS patients. It is well tolerated and should not have a negative impact on hormone levels.

• Jessi May 15, 2020 at 3:14 pm Do I need to be tested for PCOS before using this product? Could it be harmful if I do not have PCOS?

• Angela Grassi May 22, 2020 at 3:25 pm No, ovasitol is not harmful. It’s a b-vitamin like supplement. People who don’t have PCOS can take it.

• Bonnie Moskowitz May 19, 2020 at 11:24 pm Does Ovasitol increase testosterone if I have have naturally elevated dhea levels?

• Aurora June 3, 2020 at 11:11 pm If you have a regular period before taking the supplement, will it effect it? I have PCOS, but I still get a regular period. I have other symptoms that seem to be helped by Oavsitol, but I don’t want my period to change. Thank you, Aurora Monteith

• EJ July 11, 2020 at 12:36 am I took ovasitol with a carbonated beverage. Can you explain why it’s not recommended?

• Hailey August 11, 2020 at 7:16 pm Hi I am currently taking birth control and don’t plan on stopping because I don’t want to get pregnant but I have been trying to lose weight and have bad insulin resistance and I have heard good things about this so I was just curious as to if I could take ovasitol and my birth control at the same time?

• susan August 13, 2020 at 3:54 am My period is regular and am 45 years Can ovasitol help me to conceive…

• Dee Cankaya August 27, 2020 at 6:26 pm Hiya, I have started taking Ovasitol today. I am very excited to see the positive results! But I do have a question – apart from pcos I suffer from anxiety, high blood pressure and migraines. Would Ovasitol help with any of these? Also, is it ok to take Ovasitol with: 1. Metformin 2. Amitriptyline 3. High blood pressure meds 4. Sertraline Thank you very much in advance. Best, Dee

• Angela Grassi September 3, 2020 at 10:50 am Yes, you can take ovasitol with those medications but they all have the potential to lower blood glucose so I would talk with your doctor first. Yes, Ovasitol has been shown in studies to help with anxiety, blood pressure, and migraines.

• Jay August 30, 2020 at 9:01 pm Hello! I’m breastfeeding. Can I take ovasitol? Issue is I’ve spoke to two different doctors, and both are pushing me towards birth control instead for PCOS even though I’ve said no many times. They don’t like the idea of me going “rogue” and trying something off the Internet. I’ve taken ovasitol before though which they didn’t like either. So, can I take it? Thank you!!!

• Jay August 30, 2020 at 9:06 pm Hello! I’m currently breastfeeding and I wanted to know if I can take ovasitol. I’ve spoke to doctors about it and they said no and instead started pushing me towards metformin and birth control for pcos and insulin resistance. I said no to both many times. I’ve taken ovasitol before and it helped a lot. Can you help me out? Thank you.

• Angela Grassi September 3, 2020 at 10:47 am Ovasitol has been shown to be safe for breastfeeding mothers. Since you are not our patient, we can’t advise it though and recommend you talk with your doctor and maybe show the evidence.

• Jeanette Martinez September 1, 2020 at 11:53 pm Can ovasital suppress your appetite? I’m currently taking this and I feel like I’m not as hungry or I lose my appetite……. or maybe it’s just me. Also does taking ovasital have any affect on the liver?

• Angela Grassi September 3, 2020 at 10:46 am Yes, ovasitol can reduce your appetite because it can lower insulin levels (insulin is an appetite stimulant). No, it should not affect your liver.

• Dari September 5, 2020 at 1:08 pm Hello, Does Ovasitol help with endometriosis as well? Thanks

• Angela Grassi September 28, 2020 at 1:45 pm Ovasitol has not been studied well in endometriosis.

• Alicia perez September 17, 2020 at 12:32 am I take pen insulin needles is safe take with it or no I take high pressure medicine too are those safe with it because I am trying get pregnant it is safe

• Angela Grassi September 28, 2020 at 1:44 pm Yes, you can take Ovasitol with these medications but we recommend checking with your doctor first.

• Raka September 21, 2020 at 9:25 pm I am doing OMAD (one meal a day with 23 hours of fasting period) diet. I have PCOS for 2 years..I am going to start Ovasitol for the 1st time. I want to know if it would be alright to have ovasitol while fasting?

• Angela Grassi September 28, 2020 at 1:43 pm Ovasitol has not been studied on fasting individuals. We recommend taking Ovasitol with food.

• Carly September 23, 2020 at 1:03 am Thank you!! This product helped me conceive my second child after my PCOS diagnosis. My first child was via Clomid and I wanted to try to balance my hormones naturally before going that route again. I recently moved house and found some sachets I didn’t realise I hadn’t finished. They expired in Feb of this year, is it too late to take these or can I finish these off before starting my next pack? I have about 2 weeks worth.

• Angela Grassi September 28, 2020 at 1:42 pm We recommend not using expired packets from February. So glad to hear Ovasitol helped you conceive!

• Kelly September 24, 2020 at 11:35 pm I have PCOS WITHOUT insulin resistance and my cholesterol levels are low. Can Ovasitol cause either of those to go even lower in someone with already low levels?

• Angela Grassi September 28, 2020 at 1:41 pm Ovasitol does have the potential to lower glucose and insulin. Everyone is different. Some people find taking one dose a day is sufficient to help regulate periods.

• Raka September 25, 2020 at 7:41 pm Can I take ovasitol in 7 days water fasting?

• Angela Grassi September 28, 2020 at 1:40 pm We do not recommend fasting that long and cannot comment about taking Ovasitol during that time.

• Cam October 7, 2020 at 3:03 pm Thank you for your helpful website and info on Ovasitol. I’ve started and stopped this several times because of side effects. Each time I start it off, it seems to cause nausea/fatigue for me so I stop. Is this normal? I do take it with meals and have only started 1x day for the first week. But after several days I start to get these symptoms. Are these symptoms normal and will they eventually subside?

• Angela Grassi November 3, 2020 at 9:48 am Ovasitol is a sugar alcohol. Maybe try and stick to one dose for a month, with food to see if side effects improve.

• Camille October 16, 2020 at 1:39 pm I’m having side effects of nausea and fatigue after a week of using Ovasitol. Will it go away and is this a common side effect?

• Angela Grassi November 3, 2020 at 9:46 am You may want to start slower, with just one dose a day with a meal and after a week, add a second dose.

• Stef November 16, 2020 at 6:39 am I have suffered with pcos and endometriosis for 30 years and have finally had a hysterectomy… have been taking ovasitol for a year now and wondered has ovasitol been used sucessfully to help menopausal symptoms… Really look forward to a reply

• daelle glidden November 20, 2020 at 10:49 pm Is it possible to take to much? I’m very new to this and wondering how this will affect my Insulin levels. My doctor gave me 2 options one was birth control the other he said was a pill used for Diabetes witch he told me he checked me for diabetes and I didn’t have them. So he said I could pick what one I wanted to take but he would recommend me not messing with my diabetes numbers. Could taking this be harmful?

• Angela Grassi December 31, 2020 at 10:23 am No, Ovasitol does not interfere with birth control

• Smartinez December 9, 2020 at 1:51 pm I was on BC (implanon) for SEVEN years! I finally removed it this year in January- I had no period for 4 months after removing BC. I was diagnosed with PCOS in June. Obgyn prescribed progesterone, started this in July and had a period. November came along and I lost excess amount of hair, my hair continues to fall out. I decided to not take anymore medication. Here we are in December and hair is still falling out. Do you know of any other women experiencing this? I have ordered Ovasitol and hope it helps. I am desperate to know since I want to salvage as much hair.

• Angela Grassi December 31, 2020 at 10:23 am Most birth control medications suppress testosterone. It is not unusual to see symptoms worsen if stopping birth control. I hope ovasitol works for you. Here are more tips on hair loss: https://www.pcosnutrition.com/hair-loss/

• Zoya December 26, 2020 at 2:21 pm I have not had my regular periods from past 1 year and was on progesterone medication to regular my cycle. I have ordered my first supply of ovasitol and wanted to check if I can take it along with my medicine. My doctor hasn’t heard about ovasitol.

• Zoya December 27, 2020 at 1:31 pm Can I take Ovasitol with progesterone medicine my doctor has given?

• Angela Grassi December 31, 2020 at 10:20 am yes but we recommend discussing with your doctor first.

• NM December 30, 2020 at 2:17 pm Hi, I have been experiencing heavy bleeding (rare form of PCOS). I am currently taking norothesterone for 21 days and then taking a weeks break. Is it safe to take ovasitol at the same time as norothesterone?

• Angela Grassi December 31, 2020 at 10:15 am Yes, ovasitol can be taken if you are also taking birth control medications.

• Jennifer Agnew December 31, 2020 at 9:47 am Has anyone ever stopped taking ovasitol and still got cramping every day and other symptoms like nausea, aches and pain, headaches. I’ve been trying to figure out if I’m pregnant as I only took ovasitol for 2.5 months and the cramping is daily still. I don’t see any reviews or withdrawals . Please help.

• Steph January 3, 2021 at 1:24 pm If my canister expiration date is 9/20, should I order a new one or is it still good? I have at least half a canister left but I want to be sure before taking any. Thanks!

• Angela Grassi January 15, 2021 at 2:06 pm Probably best to reorder

• Steph January 3, 2021 at 8:02 pm Can you take Ovasitol past the expiration date?

• Angela Grassi January 15, 2021 at 2:05 pm yes, but just a few months out

• Vanessa January 13, 2021 at 9:56 pm I’ve been taking ovasitol for about a week now and have noticed cramping like before my periods starts kind of crampings. Is this normal from taking ovasitol? It’s the only new thing I have added to my supplement routine. Also Ive been on metformin for about 6 months and never had cramping as a side effect.

• Angela Grassi January 15, 2021 at 2:04 pm Yes, this is not uncommon. What you described sounds like signs of ovulation.

• Satvika January 16, 2021 at 3:22 pm Will there be a spike or any adverse effect if I stop consuming ovasitol in the future ? Like since my body will be used to this supplement to lower my insulin levels will stopping this cause any spike in the the insulin levels and will it in turn cause weight gain and have other effects

• Angela Grassi February 14, 2021 at 8:01 pm Good question! The long-term research on this supplement after taking is still unknown. Keep in mind, inositol is widely found in food and a relative of the b-vitamins.

• Nicole January 23, 2021 at 12:59 am Is it safe to take Ovasitol after having blood clots?

• Megha Desai February 14, 2021 at 7:29 am Hello, I came off the pill last year and haven’t had a period. I have done a lot of research which says d-chiro inositol can be bad for egg quality on its on own. I have in the past only taken myo-inositol but discovered this combined inositol. Can you confirm if this helps with ovulation and can be used for fertility and doesn’t effect the egg quality?

• Angela Grassi February 14, 2021 at 7:58 pm Yes, Ovasitol has been shown to help improve ovulation and is great for helping to get pregnant. Very high doses of d-chiro inositol (over 600mg daily) has been linked with poor fertility. Ovasitol uses a ratio of myo to DCI in a 40:1 ratio to mimic levels in the body.

• Esther v February 20, 2021 at 8:55 pm I’ve looked so many times to see how long is it safe to take ovasitol. I see studies only go with 6 months of taking ovasitol. Outside of that, is it ok to keep taking it and if so for how long? Thank you!

• Angela Grassi March 25, 2021 at 12:51 pm We really don’t know. As long as it works for you, you can continue to take Ovasitol long-term.

• Krystal Martinez March 9, 2021 at 10:49 pm I do not have PCOS but I have irregular periods, I sometimes go up to 9 months without it. I do not have Insulin issues either.

My question is, can I continue to take with either clomid or letrozol? (Drugs to help you ovulate/fall pregnant). Thank you

• Angela Grassi April 28, 2021 at 5:05 pm It is recommended to take ovasitol for the full 3 months for best benefits. Yes, you can take while undergoing clomid or letrozole. Talk to your doctor first though.

• Brit April 11, 2021 at 9:30 am Can I take Ovasitol the same time as taking letrozol or clomid?

• Haley May 19, 2021 at 10:15 am I wanted to comment too, because I asked the Theralogix support team, Ovasitol CAN be mixed into carbonated beverages, but just be careful because it can cause it to bubble and spill (think mentos and diet coke but way way way way way less). As long as it isn’t a full glass and you leave some room, it is fine. They said it doesn’t change the way the supplement works or anything, they just caution it for the potential mess. Also, (of course consult your doctor as was stated above!) but just for anyone curious about the Ovasitol and Metformin together, I was taking Ovasitol long before I started the Metformin and for me they are totally fine together. The only time I noticed my stomach feeling a little off with the Ovasitol was when I accidentally took 2 doses one morning. Some people take their 2 doses together (some other Inositols also just have a higher dosage 1x/day) and have no problem with that too so it very much varies person-to-person like most supplements. Example: I tried a Berberine, and it gave me horrible heart palpitations, it took me a week to realize that’s what it was, and then I tried a Magnesium/Calc/Zinc and it made me sick, like vertigo and weirdness very unpleasant–**neither of these were from this site**, but so many people have really good experiences with those supplements as alternatives to Metformin because of the potential for side effects (which I’ve been so very fortunate to actually respond really well to and not have much of any side effects), so it just goes to show how different people can be when it comes to this stuff.

• Leticia Chico May 22, 2021 at 8:59 pm I do not have pcos. I have type 2 diabetes and take 1000 mg of metformin, 4 mg of glimepiride, 100 mg of Januvia, 65 mg of iron. Am I able to take Ovasitol?

The combination of the two has left me often not hungry for periods of time, I am looking to incorporate some short term fasting (half/full day), but would like to continue taking ovasitol twice a day.

• Angela Grassi June 14, 2022 at 10:20 am Yes you can!

• Valerie June 27, 2022 at 8:02 pm Hello – I recently started Ovasitol and have been more bloated. Why does that happen and is there anything I can do to prevent it?

• Angela Grassi July 3, 2022 at 10:19 am Ovasitol is a sugar alcohol so it could cause bloating. We recommend starting very slow, half a dose a day for a week and slowly add in a full dose, dose and a half, until you can tolerate 2 full doses. taking it with food will also minimize side effects.

• NEY July 3, 2022 at 9:25 am I just bought my new sealed ovasitol suppliment but the powder in the bottle was not full is it normal ???? Thank you very much

• Nana August 14, 2022 at 11:32 am Should Ovasitol be started after a period cycle starts or can I start anytime I want? Please help. Thanks.

• Valentina Alonzi October 4, 2022 at 9:49 pm Hi there, just wondering if I could use this with my birth control? I’m currently on the Nuvaring. Thanks!

• Angela Grassi October 5, 2022 at 10:12 am Ovasitol can be taken with birth control.

• Gabby October 19, 2022 at 3:13 pm i see plenty of comments not to mix it into alcohol, but that it’s OK to consume alcohol at the same time. i mixed juice, a dropperful of a tincture (fairly low alcohol content, but made with half vodka/half distilled water as the base, plus honey and various herbs), magnesium carbonate, Ovasitol, and more water. Is that OK?

• Angela Grassi October 28, 2022 at 11:18 am That sounds ok.

• Suja Menon October 25, 2022 at 11:54 pm My 19 y/o daughter has been having irregular periods. She hasn’t been diagnosed with PCOS – her doctor hasn’t ordered for blood work or an ultra sound. I struggled with PCOS and fertility problems though. Can my daughter take Ovasitol? Does she need to speak to her doctor first and undergo tests to find out if she does have PCOS before taking Ovasitol? Thanks!

• Angela Grassi October 28, 2022 at 11:16 am Inositol use is well tolerated by teens and is studied in children as young as 8. We of course, always recommend consulting with your doctor before using any supplement

• Elizabeth November 20, 2022 at 7:28 pm I have pcos and I been taking ovasitol past 4months now. My question is can I take omega 3 and vitamin d3 with ovasitol

• Angela Grassi January 5, 2023 at 3:00 pm Absolutely!

• Catherine November 29, 2022 at 5:36 am I started taking ovasitol about a month ago. I began experiencing stomach issues. Large amounts of gas, stomach rumbling. The appetite/craving suppression after about two weeks was amazing. However, the gas and stomach problems were so persistent (and I didn’t attribute them to the ovasitol) that I went to a gastro doctor. He suggested I stop taking it for a few days to see what happened. I stopped it and those stomach symptoms went away. I started again today and the symptoms returned. But, I feel great otherwise when taking the ovasitol. My question is, is there anything I can take it with ,maybe a specific food, maybe a probiotic, that would reduce or eliminate these symptoms? Or are there foods I should avoid? I want to keep taking ovasitol but this is uncomfortable and embarrassing. Just for reference, I took one dose today and the symptoms returned. They don’t happen until my next meal after the supplement. Thanks for any suggestions! Catherine

• Angela Grassi January 5, 2023 at 3:00 pm Ovasitol is a sugar alcohol and can cause stomach upset. Some find taking digestive enzymes helpful when they take it. Others find mixing your ovasitol and sipping on it throughout the day helpful instead of all at once.

• Tisha November 30, 2022 at 12:02 am I have been taking this for 2 months. Previously I had very heavy and painful periods, lasting 6 days but they came regularly. After 6 weeks of ovasitol I’ve gotten a period and for the first time in a decade it was light and shorter. But then less than a week later I was bleeding again. Still light, sometimes just spotting but it’s not stopping. Has anyone experienced this?

• ELVIRA MARTINEZ February 21, 2023 at 3:22 pm Hello, I just started taking ovasitol for 3 weeks now but I haven’t gotten a full period just keep spotting for almost 3 weeks, Is this normal? Does it mean that it’s working or would it be something else?

• Angela Grassi February 21, 2023 at 3:40 pm We recommend giving Ovasitol the full 3 months for best benefit. Thanks

• Kay March 9, 2023 at 5:17 am Diagnosed with PCOS, after starting menopause prematurely, (by age 40). At age 53, now, with no period in 13 years, do I have to worry about the possibility of starting to menstruate, again, and getting pregnant (not TTC but still sexually active)). Would be taking Ovasitol for relief of other. PCOS-related symptoms….definitely don’t want to risk pregnancy nor go on BC, again.

• Angela Grassi March 9, 2023 at 7:41 am No, Ovasitol will not cause you to have periods again. There are other supplements that can help with PCOS symptoms in menopause like Berberine, NAC and Resveratrol. We do have a supplement quiz you can take to get matched with the right supplements based on your symptoms https://quiz.pcosnutrition.com/get-matched

• joanitaramasawmy.jr March 12, 2023 at 12:14 am Hello, I have pcos and did not had a period since a while. I was having a period every month only if I took medication to make it happen. I heard about Ovasitol and I’m going on my 3rd month using it but still no period… I’m trying to have a baby and some people said that they got their period with ovasitol after 1 month.. I’m really hoping to get a cycle after the 3 months.

• andrewtarcon April 21, 2023 at 5:04 pm We do recommend giving Ovasitol the full 3 months of consistent use. Some people take longer. Sometimes it can be an undiagnosed issue that is affecting your periods.

• Billy García April 2, 2023 at 10:37 am Hi, I’ve been taking this product close to two months now and after a week of taking it got my period, which I was very excited about I haven’t gotten my period for over a year . But it’s been 3 weeks now of bleeding with no sight of it stopping. I’m currently taking the product twice a day . Should I continue or stop taking it?

• Mandy April 21, 2023 at 1:26 pm I started ovasitol for a week just once a day to start than twice a day as directed. This week I got my period and I haven’t in a year. After my son my first pregnancy I had few months than nothing so it’s nice to have it finally. We’d like to have another and my son is over 2 now. My question is, is the first period supposed to be normal and should I continue to take ovasitol? I’ve had my period longer than usually do. But again it’s been a year.

• andrewtarcon April 21, 2023 at 4:58 pm Fantastic! Yes, Ovasitol is best taken consistently for at least 3 months.

• Alexis April 22, 2023 at 7:43 am If your periods are regular. Can it stop your period. I’ve taken the product for a month now and I haven’t received my period my periods 4 days late. I took a pregnancy test came out negative.

• Alexis April 22, 2023 at 9:29 am Can Ovasitol stop ur period if they were regular periods. I been taking it for a month now. And I didn’t get my period this month I’m 4 days late and I took a pregnancy test it came out negative. My periods have always been regular and on time.

• Rebecca April 30, 2023 at 3:13 am I started my first dose two days before I was supposed to get my period. Now I am 4 days and two negative pregnancy tests later. Could it be that it suppressed my period?

• Angela Grassi May 3, 2023 at 11:59 am It’s doubtful that it will have an effect that quickly.

• JENNIFER ESPINOZA May 23, 2023 at 4:40 pm Can you drink Ovaditol if you don’t have PCOS?

• Jo June 15, 2023 at 9:50 am is the dosage still 2x a day after 3 months of taking ovasitol?

• Angela Grassi June 17, 2023 at 7:47 pm It depends. Some people have cut back to once a day and are able to maintain symptoms while for others, symptoms return when stopping or cutting back.

• Jo June 19, 2023 at 11:50 am Hi, just a follow up question. So after 3 mos, it should still be taken on a daily basis? Like a lifetime supplement. Thank you very much for responding

• Jo June 20, 2023 at 3:32 am Hi, just a follow up. So ovasitol can be taken on a long term basis or even lifetime? It will depend on the consumer if it’s taken just once or 2x a day? Assuming this is after the minimum 3 months

• Angela Grassi June 29, 2023 at 10:11 am Correct. Everyone is different. Some people can cut back on Ovasitol. Some need to take twice a day, some can stop all together.

• Nadia June 28, 2023 at 5:11 pm Can I pre make my water bottles with Ovasitol ?

• Angela Grassi June 29, 2023 at 10:08 am yes you can!

• Sai July 4, 2023 at 1:09 am Hi, I have started taking Ovasitol for the first time in May after my doctor detecting PCOS.And then I got my period. As, I started taking it, for the 2nd month I got my heavy/normal periods twice in the same month (15th and 30th – 15 days apart) and after that, I see some spotting now continuously from 15th of this month (June) and still continuing. I’m just wondering to know, if this is actually regulating my hormones or should I stop taking the supplement to stop this spotting and frequent periods. I even consulted my gynic and he suggested that may continue to take it as my spotting could be a reason of hormonal changes/weight loss/stress. Just worried that what if the spotting never stops and does this spotting leads lead to actual period in near future ?

• Angela Grassi July 9, 2023 at 12:01 pm It is recommended to take ovasitol regularly for 3 months for best benefit. We recommend taking with your doctor if periods arent regulated after that.

• Melanie July 9, 2023 at 11:37 pm Hello ive been taking Ovasitol for over a month but i have only been taking one scoop per day instead of two. Will it still work with one scoop? This month is the first time i had my period at the exact same time as last month im not sure if its with the help of the ovasitol or and the fact i took Letrozole for the fidst time and ovulated.

• Angela Grassi July 28, 2023 at 4:31 pm Hi Melanie, everyone is different. If you find one scoop a day works for you, that’s fine!

• Jennifer August 10, 2023 at 10:52 am I have looked everywhere for this answer and can’t find it anywhere on the Internet. So my question is does Inositol break down and become less effective over time if mixed in a solution( water, tea, coffee,etc)? I want to know if I can mix it in a container of tea I drink throughout the week or if it loses its effectiveness after 24, 48, 72,etc hours.

• Angela Grassi August 10, 2023 at 2:12 pm We don’t know. This hasn’t been studied. Our recommendation is not to put in big container but by the glass so you know exactly how much you are getting in and drink it within the hour.

• Carley August 15, 2023 at 8:59 am Can you take ovasital while on birth control?

• Angela Grassi September 9, 2023 at 12:28 pm yes

• Amanda September 21, 2023 at 9:46 am Just a question: I stopped taking the powder for about 3ish weeks cus I ran out and didn’t have the funds to purchase more. I just bought some and my ferility doctor has me on it for help with getting pregnant. I took it for about 1.5 to 2 months before running out. By starting back up like this is it going to cause issues when it comes to fertility or period and will it take 3 months again to start working?

• Angela Grassi October 9, 2023 at 12:54 pm No, if you were already taking inositol it should not set you back. Everyone is different though.

• Sonia Saini October 2, 2023 at 1:20 pm Is it safe if I am trying get pregnant
