USE COUNCIL
For optimal use, take 2 sticks per day:
One stick just before your first meal of the day, and the other just before your last meal — ideally morning and evening.
If you don’t eat breakfast, simply take your first stick with your lunch.
Once you notice significant improvements in your symptoms over several months, you can switch to just 1 stick per day.
If you forget to take your stick before your meal, don’t worry — you can take it either before or after eating.
If you experience sensitivity to zinc when first starting the product (digestive discomfort, nausea), we recommend a gentle introduction: take 1 stick per day with food for the first week.

Ingredients
Inositol
Inositol is a type of sugar found in every cell of the human body. It’s naturally present in foods such as meat, fruits, corn, seeds, and vegetables. There are nine stereoisomers of inositol, the most important being myo-inositol and D-chiro-inositol. In addition to its role in the development of cell membranes, inositol can also influence insulin activity and certain chemical messengers in the brain. This may affect the body's ability to manage metabolic and mental health disorders.
Zinc
Zinc is an essential mineral involved in over 200 enzymatic reactions in the human body. It plays a key role in the development of female reproductive cells, fertility, and pregnancy. Beyond its reproductive functions, zinc is vital for various aspects of cellular metabolism — supporting immunity, protein synthesis, cell signalling and division, maintaining healthy skin and hair, normal carbohydrate metabolism, and protecting cells from oxidative stress.
Vitamin B9
Also known as folate, vitamin B9 is essential for the proper functioning of the body. It cannot be synthesised by the body and must therefore be obtained through food or supplementation. It plays a key role during pregnancy by supporting the growth of maternal tissues. Our formula uses Quatrefolic®, a patented active form of vitamin B9, ensuring high bioavailability.
Vitamin B6
Vitamin B6 is essential to the human body, acting as a coenzyme involved in over 100 enzymatic reactions, primarily related to protein metabolism. It also plays a role in the metabolism of amino acids, carbohydrates, and fats. Vitamin B6 is crucial for cognitive development by supporting the biosynthesis of neurotransmitters and helping maintain normal homocysteine levels. Additionally, it contributes to hormonal regulation, helps reduce fatigue, and supports normal mental function.

Customer Reviews
Started using this supplement and felt instantly better in my mood, after a month and a half I then had my first period since coming off the pill and being told I had PCOS. Will definitely continue to use and I hope the progress continues.
I got diagnosed with PCOS when I was 12 I am now 29 I've suffered 17 years back and forth to doctors to no avail. I came across sova and ordered straight away. I received my order Tuesday 10th June and started taking them that day (2 a day) I'm only in my 4 day of taking these sticks and I have noticed a massive difference especially in my mood. I haven't had a period in around 3/4 months and yesterday (13/06/25) I started spotting i am so hopeful that my period will return and we will eventually get our second bundle of joy after 10 years. I can't thank sova enough you lady's are amazing keep doing what you're doing and I will be sure to keep you all updated on my fertility journey. For anyone who is debating weather to purchase please just do it you certainly won't regret it
Been having seized period for over 7 months and have being taking Sova for 2 months now and I had my first period just yesterday. I recommend for anyone having issues with seized periods
I’ve really enjoyed taking this supplement and do feel like I’m feeling the effects of it too. Doesn’t mix too well into water (usually loses residue into the glass) so I tend to just put the powder directly into my mouth and wash it down - I don’t think this is much of an issue though. Really happy I found Sova and will continue taking this supplement!
I have been taking it for two months and got my period after 36days of taking it after not having a period for 6-8months! Very hopeful that it will be more regular now
We've got answers for you
I haven’t been diagnosed — can I still take it?
If you’re experiencing hormonal imbalances marked by intense PMS, constant fatigue, or unexplained weight gain, Ovastart may be a helpful option.
It can also be beneficial for those with endometriosis or trying to conceive. For women in perimenopause, Ovastart may help support metabolic balance as well.
Who should definitely try this product?
Anyone dealing with irregular cycles, fatigue, acne, hair loss, excess hair growth, hormonal imbalance, or blood sugar dysregulation.
Can I take Ovastart alongside another supplement that contains Inositol?
We don’t recommend combining Ovastart with other supplements that also contain Myo-Inositol or D-Chiro-Inositol. It’s best not to exceed a daily intake of 4000mg of Inositol.
When will I start feeling the effects?
It depends on each woman and the severity of the hormonal imbalance. With OVASTART, some may see their menstrual cycle return after just one month, while for others it may take a bit more time.
That’s why we recommend a 3- to 6-month routine to truly experience the benefits.
If you’re dealing with significant insulin resistance, we suggest combining Ovastart with a 3-month course of Balance tes Sucres for optimal results.
Do I need to wait for my cycle to start Ovastart?
Ovastart is a hormone-free dietary supplement, so you can start your routine at any point in your cycle!
What matters most is consistency — take it daily for at least 3 months to see the full benefits.
Is Ovastart compatible with the pill or anti-androgen treatments?
Yes, absolutely — Ovastart is compatible with all treatments. However, if you're taking anti-diabetic medication, we recommend not taking Ovastart at the same time as your treatment. For example, if you take your medication in the morning and evening, you can take one stick of Ovastart at lunchtime to avoid any potential side effects.
I’m undergoing fertility treatment (IVF/IUI) — can I take Ovastart?
Absolutely — and it’s even recommended! That said, we encourage you to discuss it with your fertility clinic beforehand 😊
Ovastart has been widely studied for its ability to support ovulation and improve fertility, making it a helpful ally during assisted reproduction journeys.
