Registered dietitian Sarah Rae shares evidence-based nutrition strategies for those managing both endometriosis and PCOS simultaneously. She explains why balanced blood sugar is crucial for both conditions and how protein intake, fiber, and healthy fats support hormone regulation.
• Similar nutrition approaches work for both endometriosis and PCOS despite perceived conflicts
• Focus on balancing blood sugars which impacts sleep, hormones, and hunger levels
• Aim for 20-30 grams of protein at each meal with fiber and healthy fats
• Those with PCOS and insulin resistance may need slightly more careful carbohydrate management
• Intermittent fasting generally not recommended as it can lead to disordered eating patterns
• Regular breakfast helps prevent binge eating, control sugar cravings, and manage bloating
• Anti-inflammatory food choices benefit both conditions
