View clinical trials related to Polycystic Ovary Syndrome.
Filter by:The mainstay treatment for females with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) has long been a combination of an oral contraceptive pill or OCP (containing both estrogen and progestin) along with an anti-androgen medication (such as Spironolactone) to not only prevent chronic anovulation but also suppress elevated testosterone levels and its clinical effects on the body. While there are multiple OCPs available on the market today and several studies that look at different progestins and their anti-androgenicity, not much is known about whether the length of active pills in OCP therapy (3 weeks versus 6 months) has any further benefit in continued suppression of testosterone and subsequently improvement in clinical findings of hyperandrogenism in the PCOS population. In this pilot randomized open label clinical trial, females between the ages of 16 and 35 years diagnosed with PCOS based on the Rotterdam Criteria, and not currently on medical therapy with an OCP will be enrolled in the study and randomized to either a continuous 6 month OCP or cyclical 21 day active OCP therapy. Our aim is to conduct a pilot randomized clinical trial to determine the effect of 6 months of active monophasic OCPs on testosterone levels and cutaneous findings of hyperandrogenism (hirsutism and acne) as compared to a traditional 21 day active/7 day placebo OCP in women with PCOS. These findings will be compared over a 6 month period.
The aim of this study is to investigate the safety and metabolic-hormonal efficiency of supplementation vitamin D deficient/insufficient PCOS women with (calcium +vitamin D + metformin) for 8 weeks compared to (placebo+ metformin).
The aims of the present study is to examine whether Time-Restricted Feeding (TRF) is a safe and effective regimen to improve insulin resistance and decrease body weight in overweight/obese Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) patients over 16 weeks compared to reduced energy restriction.
Title: The effect of cinnamon supplementation on ovulation induction in women with polycystic ovary syndrome, Jeddah 2019: Randomized Double-Blind Placebo-controlled trial Phase: III Population: 118 women with polycystic ovary syndrome will be recruited from Obstetrics and Gynecology clinics in King Abdul-Aziz University Hospital, Jeddah 2019. Subject Participation Duration: Each participant will be followed for three months. Intervention: 2g of cinnamon capsules daily will be provided. Objectives: Primary Objective: 1. To compare the effectiveness of cinnamon supplement in combination with clomiphene citrate versus clomiphene citrate alone on ovulation in women with PCOS, in King Abdul-Aziz University Hospital in Jeddah 2019. 2. To measure the difference in insulin resistance after three months of cinnamon supplementation in women with PCOS in King Abdul-Aziz University Hospital, Jeddah 2019. 3. To determine the effect of cinnamon and CC on menstrual cyclicity, approximated by menstrual frequency, during the study period, in women with PCOS in King Abdul-Aziz University Hospital, Jeddah 2019 4. To evaluate the quality of life in women with PCOS in King Abdul-Aziz University Hospital, Jeddah 2019. Secondary Objectives: - To measure the pregnancy rate in women with PCOS in King Abdul-Aziz University Hospital, Jeddah 2019 Description of Study Design: The participants will be randomized in 1:1 fashion. Allocation concealment will be ensured using similar bottles labeled by letters A and B, to receive either the combination of cinnamon supplement and clomiphene citrate or clomiphene citrate with placebo. First visit: Patients will be evaluated during the early follicular phase for progesterone level and HOMA-IR and QUICK-I. Follow up: 3 months. Last Visit: Patients will be re-evaluated to compare the difference.
The aim of this study is to investigate serum SCUBE-1 and SCUBE-3 levels in PCOS and non-PCOS cases compared with non-PCOS healthy controls with similar age and body mass index
The Investigators will measure hepatic glucose and fat metabolism in obese girls with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) and hepatic steatosis (HS) after taking 4 weeks of an essential amino acid (EAA) supplement or placebo and test whether the EAA supplement can improve hepatic glucose metabolism in these girls.
Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is a complex hormonal and metabolic disorder that has been shown to affect women's fertility. It can also share many symptoms with pre-diabetes, and women with PCOS often have an increased risk for type 2 diabetes, heart attack and stroke. This study aims to assess the feasibility and acceptability of exercise intervention and increased lifestyle physical activity to improve cardiovascular disease risk factors in women with PCOS.
The proposed single arm 6 mo. trial will assess the impact of weight loss and fat loss due to a multicomponent remotely-delivered lifestyle intervention on ovulation rates and time-to-ovulation in overweight and obese women with anovulatory infertility caused by PCOS.
This study evaluate the addition of Vit E to clomiphene citrate in the treatment of poly cystic ovary.Half the patients will receive both Vit E and clomiphene citrate the other half will receive clomiphene citrate only.
PCOS patients were treated every day, with one sachet containing 2000 mg myo-inositol, 500 mg L-tyrosine, 40 mcg chromium picolinate, 55 mcg selenium, 200 mcg folic acid. All patients underwent, before starting the therapy, after 3 months and 6 months, hormonal evaluation , hirsutism scoring and ovulation assesment. Most of them during the treatment improved their symptoms.
