Built for your PCOS subtype

Your PCOS plan,
built around
your biology.

Most PCOS advice treats all women the same. It doesn't work, because insulin-resistant, adrenal, post-pill, and inflammatory PCOS are four completely different conditions.Four PCOS subtypes. Four different plans. Built for yours.

The four PCOS subtypes

Generic advice fails because
your subtype matters.

HERA identifies your subtype from your intake. Every document is built around it, plus your medications, intolerances, training setup, and goal.

Insulin-Resistant
High fasting insulin, weight that won't shift, intense carb cravings, skin tags. The most common subtype, and the most mismanaged with generic advice.
Most common
Key markers
Insulin
↑ HIGH
Testosterone
↑ HIGH
DHEA-S
NORMAL
Adrenal
Symptoms spike with stress. Normal insulin. Anxiety, fatigue, elevated DHEA-S. Needs a completely different plan from insulin-resistant PCOS.
Stress-driven
Key markers
DHEA-S
↑ HIGH
Cortisol
ELEVATED
Insulin
NORMAL
Post-Pill
Cycles disappeared or became irregular after stopping hormonal contraceptives. Frequently mistaken for natural PCOS. It needs a completely different plan.
Hormone rebound
Key markers
LH/FSH
↑ HIGH
Progesterone
↓ LOW
Insulin
NORMAL
Inflammatory
Chronic low-grade inflammation driving hormonal disruption. Joint pain, skin issues, digestive problems alongside the full hormonal picture.

Each subtype has a distinct

The hormonal story

Your cycle across
each subtype

Select a subtype to see how its hormonal pattern deviates from a healthy cycle. This is why a single plan can't work for all four.

Normal 28-day cycle
FSH triggers follicle growth → estrogen rises → LH surges at ovulation → progesterone rises in the luteal phase. Cyclical and predictable.

LH

Where PCOS lives in the body

One condition.
Six systems disrupted.

01
HPA Axis & Stress Response
Chronically elevated cortisol suppresses the HPO axis, blunts the LH surge, and amplifies androgen production in the adrenal subtype.
02
Adrenal Glands
DHEA-S overproduction drives androgen excess independently of ovarian function, a pattern missed entirely by standard hormonal panels.
03
Pancreas & Insulin Axis
Insulin resistance triggers compensatory hyperinsulinaemia, stimulating androgen production and suppressing SHBG. Present in ~70% of PCOS cases.
04
Ovarian Follicles
Follicular arrest at the antral stage creates the classic "string of pearls." Elevated androgens prevent the dominant follicle from maturing.
05
Skin, Sebaceous Glands & Hair
DHT-driven acne, seborrhoea, scalp miniaturisation, and hirsutism, all downstream of androgen excess at the receptor level.
06
Systemic Inflammation
Elevated CRP, IL-6, and TNF-α create a low-grade inflammatory state that worsens insulin resistance and blunts hormone receptor sensitivity.
Ultrasound findings
Follicular development: healthy vs. PCOS
In PCOS, multiple small follicles arrest at the antral stage and cannot reach dominance. The result is a ring of 12+ small cysts at the ovarian cortex, and no ovulation.

I did the quiz half convinced this was another PCOS scam. Then the meal plan arrived and it had actual German supermarket stuff in it, with swaps for my lactose intolerance already built in. Nobody had ever accounted for my Metformin before either. Cravings way down, two cycles almost on time.

The afternoon crashes were my whole personality before this. Six weeks in, they're mostly gone. The plan didn't ask me to eat less, just differently, and at different times. First thing that's ever actually stuck.

Honest review: the plan is excellent and clearly written by someone who understands adrenal PCOS. Four stars only because I want the shopping list as its own printable page. Told the team, they said it's on the list. Everything else has been genuinely spot on.

The plan itself is solid and the subtype explanation finally made sense of my labs. But I emailed a question about swapping a supplement and waited four days for an answer. For €49 you're buying the plan and a follow-up, not unlimited coaching. Just know that going in.

Response from HERA · March 2026Fair point, Carlotta. That week we were slower than we want to be. We've added a 48-hour reply promise since, and your swap question is now covered in the updated supplement guide. Thank you for the honesty.

Good, thorough, clearly personalised. My plan even referenced my thyroid results, which surprised me. One star off because week one of meal prep took me much longer than the plan suggested. It got faster. Just be realistic about your first week.

Five weeks in. The bloating I'd accepted as permanent is basically gone, and I'm not fighting to stay awake at my desk at three. The plan reads like it was written about me, down to the histamine notes.

Found HERA at 2am mid-spiral, about to start another crash diet. The adrenal plan told me to do less: shorter sessions, more carbs, actual rest days. Felt completely wrong. Worked anyway. I have evenings again.

Questions

Everything women ask us
before starting.

If your question isn't here, write to info@herahealth.de. A human answers.

Your intake covers your subtype signals, symptoms, medications, food intolerances, training environment, and primary goal. All four documents are built around your answers by your coach, then reviewed by the HERA team before delivery. Two women with different subtypes receive genuinely different plans, not the same template with a different name on it.
Most women don't, and that's normal. The 90-second quiz gives you a first indication, and your full intake refines it. If your pattern is unclear, your plan starts with a diagnostic blood test guide so your subtype is confirmed with data instead of guesswork.
Yes, and it's built in. Every supplement and meal recommendation is screened against your medication list. For example, no potassium-heavy supplement advice alongside Spironolactone, and B12 monitoring notes with Metformin. Your medication changes the plan; it never gets ignored.
No. HERA provides lifestyle coaching and structured self-monitoring: nutrition, training, supplement education, and organised documents you can bring to your doctor. It doesn't diagnose or treat, and it works alongside your medical care, not instead of it.
Within 48 hours of completing your intake. All four documents arrive together in your inbox as PDFs, cross-referenced and formatted so you can take them straight to your next appointment.
No. One payment of €49, and the four documents are yours forever. The HERA app is in development. Every plan includes founding access when it launches, and there is nothing to cancel in the meantime.
Every plan comes with a 14-day money-back guarantee. Write to info@herahealth.de within 14 days of delivery and you get a full refund, no questions asked. The documents stay yours either way.
