Insulin levels in PCOS patients are frequently found to be higher than normal. Insulin is a hormone manufactured in the pancreas. It aids the body's cells in the conversion of sugar (glucose) to energy. Blood sugar levels can rise if you don't produce enough insulin. This can also occur if you have insulin resistance, which means you are unable to effectively use the insulin you do produce. If you have insulin resistance, your body may try to produce excessive amounts of insulin in order to maintain normal blood sugar levels. High insulin levels can cause your ovaries to produce more androgens, such as testosterone. CHECK OUT THE DIET TO LIVE A HEALTHY LIFE.
