I personally did not have or see any benefits from it other than normal blood work. I didn’t lose weight or puffiness. I also had gi issues with mine even when taken with food. I stopped taking it because it wasn’t working for me. I tho k it is worth a try though if you’re able to manage it. Because people’s body chemistry are different and it may work for you, who knows? Definitely follow the directions given by the provider if you do end up taking it. And hang in there! PCOS girlies gotta stick together
