Dear Himanshi Verma, Thank you for the question.

Polycystic ovarian Disease (PCOD) is endocrine disorder in women of reproductive age, which may potentially affect the reproductive, hormonal and metabolic functions. There is no one particular diet or food dish that can stop or cure PCOD. Management of PCOD involves multiple factors such as Dietary intake, physical activity, lifestyle pattern, metabolic conditions, genetics, stress etc. However, it is necessary to follow a healthy balanced diet with low fat intake, good amount of protein and fibre for ideal weight management.

We request you to kindly contact your gynaecologist for further assistance, diagnosis and management.

Here are a few tips to help manage PCOD/ PCOS

Eat regular meals with balanced diets including all food groups
Low Glycaemic Index (GI) foods have proven to be effective when managing PCOS/PCOD. Some of the Low GI include green leafy vegetables, carrots, green beans, apples, orange, pear, millets, lentils etc.
Limit intake of deep fried and high fat foods.
Engage in regular physical activity.

We request you to kindly specify your height and weight as well so that we can help you further in your weight gain/weight loss journey with appropriate nutritional guidelines accordingly.

Hope we have answered your query.

Wishing You a great day ahead.
