Following surgery there has been a significant improvement in her symptoms. Conclusion: Patients with elevated testosterone level and unclear etiology need longer follow up and review of investigations when symptoms worsen as yet undiscovered sinister etiology could be the likely reason. Dexamethasone ...
After multiple regression only the 2- to 5-mm FN remained significantly related to AMH in PCOS whereas testosterone, androstenedione, and FSH were no longer. In conclusion, the assay of the serum AMH may represent an important breakthrough in the diagnosis and in the understanding of PCOS. ...
Results: Hormonal assay showed that EV injection resulted in 4 fold increase in serum level of testosterone, which both HBE and OCP significantly (p<0.05) lowered the PCOS-increased level of testosterone. 28 days HBE and OCP administration remarkably lowered the PCOS-induced cystic and atrectic ...
Serum insulin, hs-CRP, HOMA-IR, total testosterone levels and waist circumference were higher in women with PCOS than in control group. High XP-1 levels were associated with PCOS after adjustment for potential confounders. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis confirmed that the ...
This treatment resulted in maternal neuroendocrine-driven testosterone excess and diminished placental metabolism of testosterone to estradiol, resulting in a masculinization of the exposed female fetus and a PCOS-like reproductive and neuroendocrine phenotype in adulthood. We found that the affected females...
BMI: body mass index; FPG: fasting plasma glucose; fT: free testosterone; HOMA-IR: Homeostasis Model Assessment-Insulin Resistance. Discussion The data of the present study revealed that PAPP-A levels were not significantly different in age and BMI matched women with and without PCOS. However wh...
The effect was magnified only after adjusting for age, race, body mass index, smoking status, testosterone, homeostatic model assessment for insulin resistance, and treatment randomization group (adjusted odds ratio 1.25, 95% confidence interval 1.061.49). Unlike in the PCOS population, the ...
Serum TNF alpha did not correlate with luteinizing hormone (LH), testosterone (T), or dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEAS) in women with PCOS. However, serum insulin was correlated (r=0.49, P<0.0004) with T and the BMI exhibited a trend for correlation with serum T (r=0.33, P=.05) ...
