Never miss a PCOS tablet: 6 simple tricks
Forgetting a tablet is the most common way a plan slips. Six simple tricks to take your PCOS medicines and supplements on time, every day.
Many PCOS plans include a daily tablet or supplement. It sounds simple, yet it is the step women most often forget, especially on busy or unusual days. These six tricks help.
1. Tie it to something you never skip
Morning tea, brushing your teeth, or breakfast. "After breakfast" is far easier to remember than "at 8:15".
2. Keep it where you will see it
Next to your toothbrush, your tea cup or your phone charger. Out of sight is out of mind. Keep medicines away from children and out of direct heat.
3. Use a weekly pill box
A seven-day box shows at a glance whether today's dose is taken. Refill it every Sunday.
4. Carry a spare dose
A small strip in your handbag rescues the day you leave home early or stay at a relative's place.
5. Use a reminder that you can tick off
A reminder you dismiss is easy to forget. One you tick as "done" gives you a record. Morevie reminds you at the time from your plan and keeps the tick, so you can see at a glance that you took it.
6. Plan for travel and festivals
Pack medicines before clothes. Set the reminder for the new timezone or schedule. On festival days, keep the dose tied to the first meal of the day.
Your record helps your doctor
At your next visit, "I took it 27 of 30 days" is far more useful than "mostly". If something made it hard to take, such as side effects, tell your doctor; there may be another option.
