Get the answers you need to manage YOUR PCOS symptoms
with a licensed, credentialed PCOS expert
...to identify and address the root causes of YOUR PCOS symptoms so you can have regular cycles, optimize your fertility, and feel better... without wasting time on treatments that won't work for YOU
PCOS is not one-size fits all, so your treatment plan shouldn't be either!
PCOS is a SYNDROME - meaning a collection of symptoms that can present in any number of ways.
While the most common root causes of symptoms are insulin resistance, inflammation, gut imbalances, hormone imbalances, and nutrition and lifestyle factors...different people have different degrees of these. The treatment plan for someone whose main root causes are insulin resistance and inflammation is going to be very different from the treatment plan for someone whose PCOS is primarily adrenal-driven.
In The PCOS Root Cause Roadmap, I give you all of the information you need to be able to identify and address the root causes of YOUR PCOS symptoms. But what I found was that women in my programs were still struggling to get the lab tests they needed to get these answers.
They were asking their doctors to order the labs they knew they needed... and their doctors were refusing to. They knew they could order some of the labs on their own... but that hormone testing and other labs are complicated... and they really wanted my expert interpretation and guidance... the "what does this mean and so now what should I do?"
So I created this program to allow you to get the lab testing you need to get the answers you're looking for by becoming a client of The Hormone Dietitian.
Get the testing you need so that you can get a personalized nutrition, lifestyle, and supplement plan that works for YOU!
Introducing
The PCOS Answers Program
A way for you to finally get the answers you've been looking for...
I've worked with thousands of women with PCOS in my private practice The Hormone Dietitian LLC and in my course, The PCOS Root Cause Roadmap... my proven 6-step method for getting results with PCOS.
My mission is to empower women with the knowledge they need to make the right decisions about their own bodies and what kind of care they need.
The problem is... even armed with that knowledge, when working with a healthcare team who doesn't listen to you (or, let's face it - listen to women, period), doesn't trust your instincts, and won't order the very valid and necessary tests you need to get the answers that will help you determine which root causes are driving your PCOS symptoms... who still have no answers for you beyond "go on the pill" and "lose weight"... you're still stuck.
I listen to my patients. I trust them when they say something doesn't feel right. And ordering the necessary tests to determine root causes and assess where you are with your care is just part of my protocols as a functional and integrative dietitian.
SO...
I've created the PCOS Answers Program to fast-track your ability to get those answers you so desperately desire... so that you can *finally* start feeling better and more in control of your PCOS... instead of letting it control you.
Imagine yourself after completing this program:
- Finally understanding the root causes of YOUR symptoms so you know what to focus on
- Having more stable energy throughout the day (no 3 PM crash!) and being less reliant on sugar and caffeine to power through your day... yet falling asleep with ease at the end of the day
- Feeling less bloated, with your skin clearer and your hair thicker
- Getting regular (30-day) menstrual cycles that are symptom-free
- Lowering your risk for chronic conditions like diabetes, heart disease, and endometrial cancer
- FINALLY seeing the scale reflect your diet and exercise
- Getting pregnant when YOU decide to
- Feeling confident that you're doing the right things for YOUR PCOS and not following some one-size-fits-all plan (because PCOS isn't a one-size-fits-all condition)
The PCOS Answers Program is the ONLY program of its kind that…
1. Helps you identify and address YOUR root causes of PCOS by giving you access to the conventional and functional testing that your doctor won't do
2. Allows you to work with a licensed and credentialed integrative and functional registered dietitian in a low-commitment way — just 2 appointments
3. Gives you the answers you're looking for about which root causes are driving YOUR symptoms... and what to do about them
4. Is based on real scientific evidence, including the latest in emerging research
5. Gives you access to me, Melissa Groves Azzaro, RDN, LD, award-winning licensed & credentialed functional & integrative dietitian who has helped hundreds of women with PCOS have more energy & fewer cravings, improve skin & hair symptoms, lose weight (the sustainable way!), regain regular cycles (<35 days) with confirmed ovulations, and get pregnant naturally... even after failing fertility treatments & IVF.
So if you’re finally ready to take control of your PCOS symptoms without a restrictive diet, medications, or sketchy "hormone balancing" supplements... And you want those answers you've been unable to get elsewhere...

"This was one of the best things I have invested in for my fertility journey. You learn so much about ways to fuel your body correctly, tests and real facts about PCOS. By following Melissa’s methods, I was able to ovulate naturally within the first few weeks."
Meg
PCOS RCR Student
"When I started [working with Melissa] my cycle averaged 46 days. After only the first three weeks of [working together] my cycle went down to 32 days! I’m sure that with even more time to apply the things I’ve learned I would get to the typical 28 but I ended up getting pregnant naturally during my next cycle so I’ll have to wait and see 🙂 No BS, evidence based information, and awareness that we are not all the same. Also, the incorporation of small gradual changes. It is a completely different approach then the typical “change all the things” attitude suggested by other medical professionals in the past."
Lauren
PCOS Fertility Client
"I was able to create a supplement regimen that addressed my nutrient deficiencies and prepared me for pregnancy. Our protocol helped to regulate my sleep. You were able to make recommendations about which exercises would be best for me and my goals, which was very important to me. You found the high thyroid antibodies that led to my Hashimoto’s diagnosis, which was a big missing puzzle piece in my fertility, and you helped me create a really doable protocol that addressed my Hashimoto’s. And most importantly, I was able to have a successful first round of IVF (successful egg retrieval followed by pregnancy) with your help!"

"Melissa gave me the tools I needed to know I was doing the best I could and helped me fine tune what I was doing. This has done wonders for my quality of life because it allowed me to relax and have to second guess what I was doing. Loved the messaging between appointments. She is super responsive and I never had to wait very long for her to respond to any questions or concerns I had. I loved having someone with extensive knowledge to guide you through how to best support your own body and health needs, someone to bounce ideas and concerns off of, and having an amazing cheerleader on your side! Update: Pregnant with Baby #2!"
Catherine
PCOS Fertility Client
"I wanted help transitioning off of HBC so I could get pregnant (and to avoid horrible cystic acne)! It is so helpful to work with an expert – the genetics, blood, and hormone tests helped ensure I was making the best decisions and choices for my body. I stopped HBC… and so far so good! (Update: successful pregnancy!) I loved the video chatting- very easy to schedule and it is nice to have the time to talk through items in person. I also like how scientific her approach is."
Elisa
PCOS Client
"I'm down 30 pounds and on my second regular cycle... for the first time in my life!" ... "I was able to ovulate and now I'm almost 12 weeks pregnant!" ... "I got my period at 35 days! So much better than 45-60!" ... "I had my first natural ovulation ever a couple of weeks ago and confirmed pregnancy via hcg yesterday!!!" ... "I started my period today on day 29 of my cycle! No wonder they call you The Period Fairy, Melissa!!!" ... "After Melissa explained to me the results [of my DUTCH test] I now understand more what’s going on with my hormones. You have been the only professional that has explained to me what’s going on with my hormones and also made good recommendations to improve the issue."
