Low AMH
        Zarah30sFemale
        Hi doctor, I have low AMH, but I’m allergic to COQ10 and DHEA — they make my acne worse. Which supplements can I take instead?
       
       Before starting any new supplements, it’s important to first identify the underlying causes of low AMH.
Aside from age, factors such as nutrient deficiencies and environmental exposures can also affect your AMH levels.
It’s a good idea to get a blood tes...

    Can I Take Kombucha?
        Kim30sFemale
        Is kombucha safe for women who are trying to conceive?
       
       Kombucha is a fermented, sweetened tea that naturally contains a small amount of alcohol (usually less than 0.5%) due to the fermentation process.
Because of this, it’s not recommended for women who are trying to conceive to drink kombucha regularly. It...

    Can I Take All My Supplements at Once?
        Hannah20sFemale
        I have PCOS and there are so many supplements said to help with hormone balance. Is it okay to take all of them at the same time?
       
       To be honest, it’s best to take supplements in moderation not all at once.
For example, let’s look at Evening Primrose Oil (EPO) and Fish Oil.
EPO contains omega-6 and a small amount of omega-3, while fish oil is very rich in omega-3. Taking both togethe...

    Breakfast Ideas for PCOS
        Howaida20sFemale
        I prefer having something hot for breakfast. What would you suggest?
       
        If you like something warm in the morning, you can try a fried egg with one or two slices of toast, along with some avocado or lightly cooked vegetables if you have time. Another great option is a bowl of hot oatmeal topped with nuts, chia seeds, or fresh fru...

    Miscarriage
        Eda 30sFemale
        Is it normal for someone experiencing their first pregnancy to have a miscarriage?
       
       It’s not unusual for a woman to experience a miscarriage during her first pregnancy. However, having a miscarriage doesn’t necessarily indicate an underlying health problem. It can happen for various reasons, such as chromosomal abnormalities or hormonal c...

    Choosing the Right Time for Mindful Eating
        Jenny30sFemale
        Can you share more about how to choose the right time for mindful eating?
       
       Eating times vary from person to person, so the best approach is to listen to your body’s hunger cues. For instance, if you start feeling hungry after 11 a.m., it might be a good time to have lunch. Notice whether you’re just a little hungry or very hungry...

    Nutrient Intake
        Dawood 30sMale
        Can we combine 5 colours from both vegetables and fruits?
       
       Yes. As long as you include 5 different colours from vegetables and fruits each day, it counts. The colour variety helps ensure a wider range of nutrients.

    Best Fruits for PCOS
        Sarah20sFemale
        May I know which fruit is best for managing PCOS?
       
       There isn’t one single “best” fruit for PCOS. What truly matters is variety. Try to keep your diet colorful and diverse, as this helps maintain better nutritional balance. Apples are great, but that doesn’t mean you should eat only apples every day. Ea...

    CoQ10 Use During Early Pregnancy
        Najiba30sFemale
        Is it safe or beneficial to continue taking CoQ10 in the first trimester of pregnancy?
       
       CoQ10 is an antioxidant that supports cellular energy production and is sometimes recommended to improve fertility and egg quality before conception. However, once pregnant, the focus shifts to supporting fetal growth and maternal health.
