Many women with PCOS explore nutritional support alongside lifestyle changes. Cycle Balance includes ingredients commonly used in women’s hormone support formulas; however, PCOS presents differently for everyone. Speak with your healthcare professional before use. This could also be paired with Hormone Support to include extra blood sugar balance to your body.
Can I take Cycle Balance after coming off the contraceptive pill?

Can I take Cycle Balance while on the contraceptive pill?
Some ingredients within Hormone Support formulas may not be suitable alongside hormonal contraceptives for all individuals. If taking oral contraception or hormonal treatment, consult your healthcare provider before use.
How long should I take Cycle Balance before expecting changes?
Hormonal and menstrual patterns often take time. Consistency is important, and many women allow 2–3 menstrual cycles (around 3 months) when assessing nutritional and lifestyle support.
What causes irregular menstrual cycles?
Irregular cycles can be influenced by:
- Stress
- Nutrition
- Hormone fluctuations
- PCOS
- Sleep changes
- Weight changes
- Exercise patterns
- Coming off contraception
- Thyroid conditions
Persistent irregular cycles should be investigated by a healthcare professional.
What is DIM and why is it included in Cycle Balance?
DIM (Diindolylmethane) is a compound derived from cruciferous vegetables and is commonly explored in supplements designed to support oestrogen metabolism and hormonal wellbeing.
We include DIM as part of our targeted hormone support formulation for women wanting support through changing cycles and hormone fluctuations.
Can I take Cycle Balance while trying to conceive?
If actively trying for pregnancy, discuss supplementation with your healthcare provider. Some ingredients designed for hormone support may not be appropriate throughout all stages of preconception or pregnancy planning. Female Fertility is much better suited to women trying to conceive unless you do not currently have regular periods.
