Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the effects of Metformin versus Pep2dia as adjunct treatments to Letrozole on ovulation induction and pregnancy outcomes in overweight women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). The main questions it aims to answer are: Does Metformin improve ovulation rates more effectively than Pep2dia when used alongside Letrozole? Does Pep2dia enhance pregnancy outcomes compared to Metformin in this patient population? Participants will: Receive either Metformin or Pep2dia in addition to Letrozole. Undergo regular monitoring for ovulation and pregnancy outcomes. Researchers will compare the Metformin group to the Pep2dia group to see if there is a significant difference in ovulation and pregnancy rates between the two treatments.
Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) have high testosterone levels which is associated with altered insulin-glucose metabolism and an adverse blood lipid profile, predisposing them to the development of Type II Diabetes and Cardiovascular Disease (CVD). This study will investigate the use of dietary fish oil supplementation as a safe and effective intervention, and as an adjunct therapy to standard of care treatment with metformin to improve heart health, blood lipids and insulin-glucose metabolism in women with PCOS, and those with PCOS and Type 2 Diabetes.
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) affects 1 in 5 females of reproductive age. Commonly characterized as a disorder of infertility, PCOS is often accompanied by 3 potent cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors: insulin resistance, endothelial dysfunction, and elevated blood pressure. Accordingly, PCOS is associated with the development of CVD, the second leading cause of death in females in Canada. However, effective treatments to improve cardiovascular health in PCOS are lacking. Exogenous ketone monoester (KME) ingestion has been shown to improves outcomes associated with insulin resistance, endothelial function, and blood pressure regulation in healthy individuals and individuals predisposed to CVD. Therefore, oral ketone supplements offer a practical and effective strategy for improving cardiovascular health; however, this treatment has yet to be evaluated in PCOS. Therefore, the overall goal of this project is to employ KME ingestion to improve markers of cardiovascular health in females with PCOS. On two different days, participants will consume either a beverage containing a ketone supplement or a beverage containing a placebo supplement. The objectives are to compare responses between KME and placebo ingestion, and examine all outcomes related to cardiovascular health in females with PCOS in comparison with female controls of similar age and body mass index. The effects of KME ingestion will be quantified on: 1) glycemic control during an oral glucose tolerance test; 2) endothelial function using the flow-mediated dilation test; 3) blood pressure and acute blood pressure regulation; and 4) hemodynamic responses to acute exercise.
To analyze the effect of pretreatment with dydrogesterone vs combined estradiol valerate and dydrogesterone on embryologic parameters, chemical and clinical pregnancy rates of ICSI in women with PCOS.
According the World Health Organization (WHO), infertility is a disease of the male or female reproductive system defined by the failure to achieve a pregnancy after 12 months or more of regular unprotected sexual intercourse. In-vitro-fertilization (IVF) is considered to be a successful tool to overcome infertility. However, the current methods used to assess the ovarian reserve and to develop an optimal individualized controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH) protocol have shown some limitations. Growing evidence indicates that altered renal renin-angiotensin system (RAS) and/or melatonin are linked to infertility. Aims and Objectives: The current 2 years duration study aims first to investigate the demographic and clinical profiles of patients undergoing IVF in the UAE. In the second phase of the study, we hypothesis that an altered angiotensin-melatonin axis may be considered as an unfavorable prognosis factor in poor and hyper responders undergoing IVF treatment. This hypothesis will be assessed using an observational, longitudinal, prospective clinical study to determine whether the urinary angiotensinogen and/or melatonin deficiency might be present in poor and hyper responders undergoing IVF treatment. Thus, negatively impacting the clinical pregnancy rate. Methodology: various patient's data will be collected using a questionnaire and the levels of angiotensinogen and melatonin in patient's urine will be measured using ELISA test prior to, during and after the IVF treatment. To determine whether the angiotensinogen-melatonin axis disruption affects the IVF treatment outcome, we will analyze the following parameters: the AMH, Antral Follicular Count (AFC), day 2-4 FSH levels, the stimulation cycle in regards to number of stimulation days and amount of gonadotropins used for stimulation, number of oocytes retrieved and number of mature oocytes, quality and embryo's ploidy, number of available euploid embryos and the clinical pregnancy rate after frozen embryo transfer.
Investigators expected to verify this hypothesis through this study:acupuncture and moxibustion combined with LE induced ovulation in Chinese anovulatory PCOS women has a higher rate of live birth than LE induced ovulation alone.
Aim of the study is to compare the effect of myoinositol and metformin in the resumption of the spontaneous menstrual cycle in patients diagnosed with PCOS or having oligo/amenorrhea, reduction in weight and BMI, Improvement in the biochemical and clinical profile of patients with the polycystic syndrome. The secondary outcome measured will be the rate of pregnancy, miscarriage and term pregnancy among these patients inducted in the study. It will be a Three-arm prospective double-blind study. this clinical trial will be registered in Public registry. this RCT will be based on CONSORT statement. The patient coming to Gynecology OPD will be randomized into 3 groups GROUP A ( metformin 500 mg TDS), GROUP B( myoinositol 2mg x BD ), GROUP C.(both metformin,& myoinositol).each group will take folic acid and will be asked for lifestyle modifications.
tTe investigators estimate pomegranate supplementation effect on oxidative stress in infertile women with PCOS, endometriosis and advanced maternal age during IVF treatment. The primary aim is to compare the obtained oxidative stress markers in follicular fluid with pomegranate supplementation vs control.
evaluation of the potential role of circulating Nesfatin-1 and Nicotinamide in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome. and detection the correlation between Nesfatin-1 and body mass index (BMI), Waist hip ratio (WHR), blood glucose, insulin, insulin resistance, lipid profiles, prolactin, LH, FSH, estrogen, progesterone, testosterone and dopamine.
To investigate whether intensive metabolic intervention of PCOS women before pregnancy can improve pregnancy outcome.Besides, the investigators aim to investigate the best therapy strategy of metabolic intervention before pregnancy.The investigators plan to recruit PCOS women at childbearing age. By using acarbose, GLP-1 analogue, berberin et al. the investigators will intervent the participants' metabolic statues for 3 months before pregnancy and to compare outcome in each group.
