I just began taking Fortemet 500mg in the morning for PCOS. Do I continue with this medication while using the Insulite PCOS System?
Many of our patients are on glucose-lowering drugs and some take them along with the Insulite PCOS System. While it’s unethical to tell you not take any medicine, we can tell you that the Insulite PCOS System is designed to have a similar mechanism of action as this medication. Our System actually helps reverse the symptoms, not just eliminate them. It is our philosophy to treat the cause of the condition and not modify symptoms. Please consult with your physician if you wish to discontinue the use of any medication. If you decide to stay on the medication, you can safely take our nutrients, too. Having a glucometer at home is ideal for testing your blood sugar. We would advise testing regularly for the first week on the Insulite PCOS System so you can detect any blood sugar changes. If you do not have a glucometer, watch for the following for the first week: low energy, fatigue, headaches, irritability, unusual hunger – these are all clues to not having balanced blood sugars.
