(Women’s Health)
PCOS is more than a hormonal imbalance — it’s a full-body experience that can affect cycles, skin, mood, metabolism, and fertility. At Island Roots Botanicals, we honor the emotional, physical, and spiritual weight that comes with managing PCOS, and we offer herbal support that works with your body’s natural rhythm. 🌸
Our PCOS Support collection features herbs traditionally used to help:
• Balance excess testosterone and androgens
• Regulate irregular or absent cycles
• Support ovulation and reproductive wellness
• Improve insulin sensitivity and metabolic balance
• Reduce bloating, inflammation, and pelvic discomfort
• Ease hormonal acne and oily skin
• Encourage emotional steadiness and stress relief
These blends combine hormone-modulating roots, mineral-rich tonics, liver-supportive herbs, and circulation-enhancing botanicals — including many traditional Caribbean plants used to restore balance, tone the womb, and calm the endocrine system.
Perfect for those navigating symptoms like hirsutism, cystic acne, stubborn weight gain, sugar cravings, mood swings, fatigue, or inconsistent cycles, this collection helps bring your body back to center gently and naturally.
You don’t have to fight your body — you can work with it, support it, and nurture it back into harmony one herb at a time.
Regulate cycles, reduce cystic symptoms, and support hormone harmony.
Focus: hormonal balance, insulin resistance, liver detox, and menstrual regulation.
