Diet showdown: can a Fertility-Focused mediterranean diet beat standard advice for PCOS?
NCT ID NCT07298603
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study compares two dietary approaches—a standard Mediterranean diet and a fertility-optimized version called FertilOMed—against usual care in 36 women with PCOS. Over 12 weeks, researchers will track changes in hormones, metabolism, weight, and quality of life to see if a targeted diet can ease PCOS symptoms.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
Mediterranean Diet and FertilOMed Diet (a fertility-optimized Mediterranean diet)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could show that a tailored diet helps manage PCOS symptoms and improve hormone and metabolic health without medication.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage study with only 36 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. Diet adherence can be hard to maintain, and the 12-week duration is short.
