Filter by:The aim of this project is to investigate the pathophysiology of PCOS in regards to the metabolic profile including defects in insulin sensitivity in skeletal muscle and adipose tissue, and to investigate the effects of exercise training on these parameters.
The aim is to investigate whether 16 weeks of high intensity interval training, followed by 36 weeks of home-based exercise, will improve menstrual frequency in women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) compared with a non-exercising control group.
The purpose of this study is to investigate whether higher insulin resistance in young women with Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is associated with reduced cerebral metabolic rate of glucose (CMRglu). Brain volumes using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and quantitative cerebral glucose uptake using dynamic positron emission tomography (PET) were obtained.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of increased circulating androgens on estradiol production by the granulosa cells in response to FSH stimulus.
The purpose of this study is to analyse the activity of myo-inositol on pregnancy rate, embryo development dynamics and oestradiol and progesterone concentration in blood serum and Superoxide Dismutase (SOD) and catalase concentration in follicular fluid of patients with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) undergoing Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI).
One hundred and thirty six anovulatory women with CC-resistant PCOS were scheduled randomly into two equal groups. Group A (n=68); received CC (100 mg/day from cycle day 3 for 10 days) for up to six cycles. Group B (n=68) underwent LOD and followed up for 6 months. The primary outcome was the ovulation rate in each group; secondary outcomes were midcycle endometrial thickness and serum estradiol, midluteal serum progesterone, and the rates of clinical pregnancy and abortion.
Prospective study conducted on 150 women with polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) were randomly divided into 3 groups: group I (50 women) received clomiphene citrate (CC) only 50 mg orally every 8 hours started from cycle day 3 for 5 days, group II (50 women) received 2mg estradiol valerate daily from cycle day 7 - 11 in addition to CC and group III (50 women) received phytoestrogen (20mg of cimifuga racemosa from day 1- 12) in addition to CC.
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) affects 5-10% of women in childbearing age. Hyperinsulinemia contributes to chronic anovulation commonly encountered in women with PCOS. The first choice therapy is clomiphene citrate (CC). In CC resistant cases, the American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology (ACOG) recommends the use of insulin sensitizer metformin. Other insulin sensitizing agents include rosiglitazone and pioglitazone. Pioglitazone is said to improve fertility and ovulation in patients with PCOS.CC may be associated with poor endometrial thickening due to its antiestrogenic effect. Letrozole may improve this condition. In this study we will compare the effect of combined letrozole-metformin with that of combined letrozole-pioglitazone in ovulation induction in CC-resistant PCOS women
The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of 50,000 IU vitamin D3 supplementation on Polycystic Ovary Syndrome prognosis. A randomized, double-blind, Parallel design comparing vitamin D with Placebo will be conducted on 60 overweight females diagnosed with PCOS according to Rotterdam criteria and have serum 25(OH)D level < 20 ng/ml. The results are expected to assess the improvement of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome prognosis and the effect of Vitamin D Supplementation on Chromium Serum Levels and Insulin Resistance.
210 women with clomiphene resistant PCOS will be randomly divided into 3 equal groups using computer generated random numbers. Group 1 will receive FSH, group 2 will have Letrozole and group 3 will act as the control group with no intervention.
