Anyone heard of or used D-Chiro-Inositol ?

in TTC after 35
So, I've been researching the heck out of PCOS because the only thing you will get from any doctor is - decrease carbs.
I found D-Chiro-Inositol has been used to treat PCOS, specifically the insulin resistance type. 

I am going to order some on Amazon today and I am also starting my Beachbody diet and 3 day cleanse next Monday.  Anyone tried this, Shakeology or the 21 day fix?

I have to fit this short trip to the beach for my birthday first ;)

    I tried Shakeoloy for a bit. Something in it messed with my tummy though so, I stopped.

    Yes! I do Vitex Chaste berry but hasn't done the trick yet.

    I'm taking myo-inositol.  Are they similar? I read about mho-inositol in "It starts with the egg" and my new acupuncturist just started me on it.  We shall see if it helps my eggs.  I've never done any of the diets, but I'm on a low carb, refined sugar diet and just did a week "cleanse" from carbs and gluten.  I'm hoping it will help...
