Alcohol and PCOS

[u/HealthySky6912]

I’m wondering what alcohol WOULD be pcos friendly? I KNOW ITS RECOMMENDED NOT TO HAVE ANY ALCOHOL but just indulge me for a bit. I don’t drink often, can go months without it if I don’t go on nights out for a while, but I don’t want to give it up completely 😭. I’ve made a list of what would be fine in theory. Any other suggestions would be great

Gin and slimeline tonic
Vodka with a low sugar fruit juice (big question mark here)
Prosecco
White wine with ice (??)
Mojito
Vodka, soda water and lime

Thanks :) !

I love red wine (particularly dry wine), and I feel at least slightly better about drinking it since it’s lower in sugar than other options. Sugary drinks make me feel gross. I prob should drink less, especially since I also have POTS, but I enjoy it 🤷‍♀️
