let’s talk about the male version of pcos what is pcos it stands for polycystic ovarian syndrome okay pcos is a condition in females where you have these follicle or cyst like things growing on the ovary and there is an excess amount of androgens being produced and these androgens create facial hair loss of hair on top of your head weight gain deeper voice and a very stubborn metabolism now pcos is driven largely by chronically elevated insulin okay this is called hyperinsulinemia okay too much insulin in your blood now what causes that too many carbs this is why the ketogenic diet is essential for pcos but in a male if we’re going to talk about the the equivalent of pcos in a man we’re going to get three symptoms one is androgenic alopecia this is male pattern baldness okay number two erectile dysfunction why because insulin destroys circulation in the vascular system and the last one is benign prostatic hypertrophy your prostate is getting too big and that is because insulin is a growth promoting factor it makes things get bigger so if you have any one of these and we’ll call them symptoms you know you have too much insulin and the most important test that doctors never do is a fasting insulin test and there’s another one called homa ir which measures as a part of that fasting insulin so if you have male pattern baldness a rectal dysfunction or an enlarged prostate definitely get the blood test homa ir or even a fasting insulin test and in the meantime if you want to see some amazing improvements i would recommend doing the healthy version of the ketogenic diet as well as intermittent fasting if you’re new to my channel i put a link down below of exactly how to do it hey before you go if you’re benefiting from any of my content i would love to hear about your success story please share it in the link down below
