Frequently asked questions

  • We carefully curated a team of dietitians that are specialized and passionate about PCOS. Many of our dietitians have the personal experience of managing PCOS as well. If you want to see an expert in PCOS, Alike is the platform for you.

  • Yes. We are a virtual nutrition practice and will provide you with a secure client portal where all your sessions will be conducted through video visits.

  • Many insurance plans provide “preventative nutrition counseling.” This means you can work with a dietitian for free as often as you’d like. Send us an inquiry and our team will check your nutrition benefits prior to scheduling an appointment.

  • The initial consultation is a 75-minute session designed to get to know you fully. During this intake, we'll discuss your diagnosis, symptoms, lab results, medical history, dieting history, lifestyle, habits, support system, exercise routine, stress levels, and more. We’ll create a safe and supportive environment to explore sensitive topics like body image, relationship with food, digestive health, menstrual cycles, and beyond.

  • Every client is unique, but generally, we recommend meeting with your dietitian weekly or biweekly for the first few months. We typically work with clients for a minimum of 4 months to ensure lasting progress.

  • At Alike, we recognize that PCOS is a deeply personal condition that affects not only physical health but also emotional well-being and overall quality of life. Many of our dietitians have PCOS themselves and truly understand the complexities of managing this condition. Our dietitians are here to do more than just offer nutrition recommendations—they are here to listen, offer guidance, and empower you to take control of your health. We firmly believe in body autonomy, and ultimately, that you are in the driver's seat of your care.

  • At Alike, treatment is tailored to you—it's not one-size-fits-all. We provide collaborative, holistic, and patient-centered care, taking into account all aspects of your health.

    Our dietitians will review your diagnosis, symptoms and lab results to create a personalized plan that includes meal planning, targeted supplements, gentle movement, stress management, sleep hygiene, and social support.

  • A weight-neutral approach focuses on overall health and well-being, rather than weight loss. This approach promotes behaviors that support physical, emotional, and mental health, including balanced nutrition, mindful eating, exercise, and self-care, all without the pressure to conform to a specific weight or body size. We believe that improvements in your PCOS goes beyond the scale and health is achievable at any size.

  • Yes! Once you become an Alike client, you will have the opportunity to join our monthly PCOS support group or participate in the food journaling services. You may discuss these with your dietitian upon scheduling.

  • A dietitian is a healthcare professional with extensive training. As dietitians we hold a degree in clinical dietetics, we must complete a supervised internship of 1,200+ hours, pass a national exam and maintain certification through continuing education credits to stay up-to-date with the latest research and practices. In contrast, the title "nutritionist" is not regulated, meaning it can be used by individuals with varying levels of education and experience.
