PCOS Supplements for hair growth: Inofolic Alpha

If you are suffering from acne, hirsutism (excessive body hair) or other effects of hyperandrogenism, this is because women with PCOS often have high testosterone levels.

Myo-inositol can help to maintain balance in these hormones.

Myo-inositol is a key nutrient the body seeks to maintain hormonal balance and metabolic functions. Up to 38% of PCOS women struggle to absorb myo-inositol from food sources or supplements alone, which is why the addition of alpha-lactalbumin in Inofolic® Alpha is so important.

Inofolic® Alpha, is well-researched with its ingredients originating from natural sources with little or no side effects.
