Filter by:The purpose is to investigate the effects of 2 different treatments (drospirenone/ethinyl estradiol versus rosiglitazone) on insulin sensitivity and androgen levels, inflammatory markers, vascular markers and bone development in overweight adolescent females with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).
In vitro maturation of oocytes after minimal gonadotropin stimulation in patients with polycystic ovaries, to prevent cases of ovarian hyperstimulation.
We hypothesise that fish oils will have a beneficial effect on cardiometabolic parameters in women with PCOS. The purpose of this study therefore is to examine the effects of fish oils on blood pressure, heart rate variability and liver fat content in obese women with the polycystic ovary syndrome.
The scope of the study was to investigate different metabolic aspects that may lead to or are a consequence of insulin resistance in premenopausal women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). We use gold standard methods for evaluation of insulin resistance. We take muscle and fat biopsies for investigation of gene expression of different cytokines associated with insulin resistance. We investigate the incretin hormones GIP and GLP-1. These two hormones play a central role in glycemic control, and diabetic subjects are known to have alterations in their incretin hormones. The incretin hormones have not previously been investigated in women with PCOS.
This is a randomized control trial of acupuncture for women with polycystic ovary syndrome. The study is triple-blinded.
Oral contraceptive therapy is routinely used for the treatment of menstrual disturbances of patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). To date, the cardiovascular risk (CVR) of the oral contraceptives (OC) are known but no data are available on the CVR in PCOS patients treated with OC or physical exercise. The purpose of this study is to compare the effects of OC to physical exercise on the CVR of PCOS women and show the hormonal and metabolic effects of these two different treatment. We hypothesize that physical exercise has the same beneficial effects of OC therapy on hormonal and metabolic features of PCOS women with less cardiovascular consequences.
The purpose of this study is to learn more about the effects of walnuts, walnut-oil, almonds and fish oils on blood sugar and insulin levels in polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) patients. The hypothesis is that a diet rich in these foods will improve insulin resistance in women with PCOS.
Flax seed oil, fish oil, and soy bean oil, are commonly recommended supplements for Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS). These oils have different chemical structures and biological actions. It is not yet known which of these oils has the most beneficial effects in PCOS patients because they have never been compared to each other head to head. In this study the researchers hope to learn more about the effects of these oils on blood sugar and insulin levels.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether simvastatin is effective in the improvement of IVF-ICSI outcome in Pcos patients.
Retrieval of immature oocytes from women with polycystic ovaries, their in-vitro maturation, fertilization and embryo transfer can prevent hormonal treatment that can lead to ovarian hyperstimulation. In addition, it can decrease discomfort and side-effects of routine daily administration of hormones and it can be cost-effective. Thirty healthy women with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome aged 20-35, with BMI 18-30 kg/msq will be included in the study. Their immature oocytes will be retrieved from small follicles without any hormonal treatment. The oocytes will be fertilized post in-vitro maturation. The developed embryros will be transferred to the patients as in a routine IVF cycle.
