From your symptoms it's likely you have high insulin that is driving your PCOS symptoms such as:InfertilityIrregular cyclesUnwanted hair growthAcneFatigueMood swingsPoor quality sleepInsulin Resistance is the most common type of PCOS! Found in around 70% of women with PCOS. It's important to note that there is some overlap between the four types of PCOS.
