About The Women's Dietitian

Hi, I am Cory Ruth

Registered dietitian, fellow PCOS cyster, and women's health expert

I work specifically with women to help them better understand the powerful connection between the female body systems and optimal health. I struggled for what seemed like FOREVER with irregular periods, anovulatory cycles, and ridiculous weight gain even though I spent the majority of my time focusing on “healthy eating” and “exercising.”

My PCOS Diagnosis

This changed the game for me and completely flipped the script. | dedicated my life’s work and career to learning EVERYTHING | possibly could about this complex condition so that | could educate and empower other women to take back control of their health, weight, and fertility and finally become the BOSS of their PCOS.

My love of science and belief in food as preventative medicine led me to complete 9+ years of rigorous academic study and earn a master’s in nutritional science. I view the female body as a responsive and regenerative system that knows exactly what to do when given the proper support. I am committed to evidence-based nutrition. That means you won’t be told to do “this or that” to “cure” your PCOS if we don’t have the research to support it. PERIOD.

I live on the California/Oregon border with my fiance, our two kiddos, and pug that sheds like mad. Cooking, hiking, and killing houseplants are among my top hobbies. I can’t wait to work with you.

Quick questions

I mainly focus on helping women with PCOS and hormonal imbalances. This often encompasses other diagnoses such as IBS, hypothyroidism, and Endometriosis. So you don’t need to necessarily have “PCOS” to work with me or join one of my programs. Just know my content in all my programs is usually tailored for women with PCOS.

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a hormonal disorder. 1 in 10 women have PCOS causing hormonal imbalance, metabolism problems, and are told they will struggle to get pregnant naturally. To be diagnosed with PCOS, you need to meet 2 of the following 3 criteria: irregular periods (this could mean a missing period, random periods, or feeling you’re spotting and bleeding all the time), high levels of androgens or physical signs of this like facial hair or acne, and polycystic ovaries visible on an ultrasound.

Nope, you can absolutely still benefit from any of my PCOS programs!

 I created my personalized PCOS program, The PCOS Thrive Hive to help you master your PCOS symptoms like irregular periods and facial hair growth, permanently lose weight without restriction or deprivation, and optimize your fertility if and when you want to get pregnant. This is all achieved without the use of expensive pharmaceuticals, synthetic hormones in birth control, and restrictive tactics like eliminating gluten/dairy/sugar/all joy in life. Instead, I guide women how to make simple tweaks in their diet, movement routines, stress management strategies, gut health, supplements, and cycle tracking habits. I also offer a PCOS supplement line, VITA-PCOS, to help you achieve your health goals like weight loss faster. I would love to work with you!
