Myo-inositol, closely associated with the vitamin B-complex, is just one of nine different types of inositol. It is produced by the human body and is also the most naturally occurring form, for example in foods such as fruit, beans, vegetables, meat, fish and nuts.

The most common and best-studied use of myo-inositol is polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). PCOS is an endocrine disorder that affects one in ten women of reproductive age. Studies have shown that myo-inositol helps improve several aspects of reproductive function in women with polycystic ovary syndrome, including menstrual regularity, ovulation and fertility.

Myo-inositol is a building block for a number of secondary ‘carriers’ in the body and has been extensively studied in recent years for its role in insulin signalling.

Another beneficial effect appears to be the ability of myoinositol to contribute to weight loss. PCOS due to insulin resistance is more common in obese women and weight loss can be difficult as a result, as the levels of hormones that control appetite are disturbed. Other studies on PCOS have found that oxidative stress and symptoms of acne and hirsutism improve after six months of supplemental myoinositol intake.

Myoinositol may help with depression and other mood disorders characterised by low serotonin levels. This is due to its important role in improving cellular sensitivity to serotonin. Inositol can affect neurotransmitters in the brain, including serotonin. High doses may be beneficial in certain anxiety disorders, such as panic disorders.

Myoinositol also plays a role in improving male fertility. It is thought that the role of myoinositol in sperm count and motility may be partly due to the fact that myoinositol supports sperm mitochondrial function and exerts antioxidant effects.
