Summary: <div class="uk-article-title"></div> <div lang="EN-US"> <div class="WordSection1"> <p>It is always a pleasure to speak with someone knowledgeable about PCOS, so I was excited to interview Dr.  Mark Perloe, an OBGYN and PCOS fertility expert.   He shared that PCOS is <strong>less about a woman’s ovaries and more about her insulin resistance</strong>.  His analogies of the way our bodies process insulin to a car engine and subway train rang true and made a complicated issue very accessible.  Listen as he explains <strong>why treating PCOS is a 3 legged stool</strong> involving your exercise, relationship with food and insulin sensitizers.  He offers <strong>practical advice</strong> on the most effective way to exercise to both lower insulin and lose weight, how to change your relationship with food, choose a doctor and what supplements to consider as well as his thoughts on PCOS and pregnancy.</p> </div> </div>
