FAQ

Straight answers, so you can start with confidence

No hype and no jargon. If your question is not here, just ask us.

What can diet realistically do for PCOS?

PCOS is a medical condition, and no diet can promise to make it go away. Steady, practical nutrition and daily habits can support how you feel and help you manage symptoms alongside your doctor’s care. We focus on what is realistic for your life.

Is PCOD the same as PCOS?

Many people in India use the two words for the same thing: PCOD (polycystic ovarian disease) and PCOS (polycystic ovary syndrome). Doctors may use the terms a little differently, so ask your doctor which applies to you. Either way, the nutrition support we offer is the same: a personalised plan built on everyday Indian food, steady habits and regular check-ins.

Does DietSetu replace my doctor?

No. We work alongside your doctor, never instead of them. We do not diagnose conditions or prescribe medicines, and we never ask you to stop or change a medicine.

What happens in the free 10-minute PCOS check chat?

You tell us what you are dealing with and what you have already tried. We listen, answer your first questions and tell you honestly whether and how we can help. There is no pressure to join.

Are the consultations only online?

Yes. DietSetu is online only. We are based in Howrah, West Bengal, and clients across India, including Kolkata, speak to their dietitian from home by voice or video consultation, whichever they prefer.

Will I get a ready-made PCOS or PCOD diet chart?

No. Instead of a printed one-size diet chart, you get a personalised plan built around Indian meals, your routine, your preferences and your budget. It is reviewed at regular check-ins and adjusted as your life changes.

Do I have to stop my medicines or supplements?

No. Never stop or change a medicine or supplement without your doctor’s advice. We build nutrition support around the care you already receive.

Is DietSetu only for PCOS?

PCOS is our focus, and we also support weight management, thyroid, diabetes support, gut health and general nutrition, always alongside your doctor’s care.

How long does it take to see a difference?

There is no fixed timeline, and we won’t promise one. PCOS is usually managed over the long term, and every body responds differently. Many people notice changes in energy, cravings or daily routine within the first few weeks, and some see changes in their cycle over the first few months, but this varies a lot from person to person. Your doctor’s treatment continues alongside our support, and at each check-in your dietitian looks at how things are going and adjusts the plan.

Does the plan use Indian food?

Yes. Plans are built around familiar home food from across India, including everyday meals, festival and fasting days, office tiffin and your budget.

How much does it cost?

Prices are in ₹. PCOS & PCOD, Weight loss, Thyroid support, Diabetes support, Gut health and General nutrition (the same prices for each): 1 month ₹999, 3 months ₹2,599, 6 months ₹4,999. Your dietitian explains what each package includes in the free 10-minute PCOS check chat before you decide.

Can I get a refund?

After work starts: fees for work done and sessions used are not refunded. The unused part may be refunded pro rata, at our discretion, after review.

The full policy is on the Refund and Cancellation page.

Is my information private?

Yes. We use what you share only to support you and reply to you. Our Privacy Policy explains how your details are handled.

What if I need urgent medical care?

DietSetu is not an emergency service. If you feel very unwell, please contact your doctor or the nearest hospital straight away.
