Filter by:The objective was 1. to check whether serum androgen levels and concomitant metabolic changes, oxidative stress and inflammation in adolescent girls with hyperandrogenism may be related to diet. 2. to identify the factors that increase the risk of being overweight and of obesity among adolescents with clinical features of PCOS, related to diet and DEA (Disordered Eating Attitudes) 3. to investigate the relationships between markers of oxidation and markers of Systemic Inflammation and macronutrients intake 4. to assess the relation between oral health of girls with PCOS (including condition of periodontium and dental caries) and their dietary habits, hormonal, metabolic and oxidative and inflammatory status.
In obese women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), weight loss improves insulin resistance and hyperandrogenism, resulting in improvement of clinical symptoms. Weight loss is not required in lean PCOS patients; nevertheless, the influence of meal timing and composition on glucose metabolism and hyperandrogenism may have clinical value. In this study the investigators investigate the effects of two isocaloric diets with different meal timing distribution on insulin resistance and hyperandrogenism in lean PCOS patients.
Women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) can have unwanted facial or male-patterned body hair, irregular menstrual periods, or no menstrual periods excess body weight, and infertility. It also results in elevated androgen levels such as testosterone. In women with PCOS, the majority of excess androgens are produced by the ovaries. However, it is unknown whether the ovaries are fully active during early puberty. The purpose of this study is to determine how the ovaries contribute to the production of male hormones in the body during different stages of puberty, so that it can be better understood why some females have excess androgens.
This is a Phase IV, randomized, double-blind, comparative study of the use of two preparations of ethinyl estradiol and cyproterone acetate in the treatment of menstrual irregularities of hyper-androgenic origin.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether sleep-wake changes of luteinizing hormone pulse frequency are different in early pubertal girls with high testosterone levels compared to early pubertal girls with normal testosterone levels.
