Pharmacology
D-chiro-inositol is a naturally occurring inositol isomer extracted by a patented process from Carob (Ceratonia siliqua) pod native to Southern Europe. The perfect combination of D-chiro-inositol and Myo-inositol with a specific ratio may help to correct the hormonal imbalance and menstrual cycle to achieve ovulation. This combination significantly decreases the level of prolactin hormone, testosterone hormone, luteinizing hormone and also balances the ratio of follicle-stimulating hormone and luteinizing hormone. It increases insulin sensitivity, estrogen hormone level and reduces oxidative stress within the ovarian follicles. It helps in follicular development, improves egg quality, and restores ovulation in women to enhance the chances of pregnancy. It helps to prevent the onset of gestational diabetes mellitus. It also reduces symptoms associated with PCOS and improves fertility in women with PCOS.
