Quick to respond, actor Ali Fazal detailed his own transformation journey and wrote, “so nice to read this.. as a man if i may- haven gone through so many tranformations for work, and what nobody realises is the toll it takes and sometimes mentally that a part of the mind switches off to all inputs. And its only focus and nutrition that almost rekindles the hope that our bodies are amazing gods within themselves.. capable of the unthinkable sometimes. Good on you!! And thank you for this. Inspiring indeed. I started yoga, and nothings pullin me away from that ever now. A non negotiable!? Hehe (sic).”(Instagram/alifazal9/masabagupta) expand-icon View Photos in a new improved layout

While there is no permanent cure for PCOD and PCOS, the symptoms can be managed with the intake of right diet of limiting carbohydrates, maintaining a healthy weight and with adequate exercise. Blood sugar levels can be lowered with exercise and since weight loss can reduce insulin and androgen levels, it may restore ovulation and can even help with infertility.(Getty Images/iStockphoto) expand-icon View Photos in a new improved layout
