Comparison of single and combined treatment with exenatide and metformin on menstrual cyclicity in overweight women with polycystic ovary syndrome. Insulin resistance and obesity are common features of the polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Weight loss and use of insulin-lowering drugs have been shown ...
The ovary is an unique organ which fulfils a plethora of physiological functions ranging from its well-recognized roles in steroid hormone biosynthesis, oocyte production and the support of early pregnancy through to its rather less well-known involvemen
The polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is the most common endocrine associated with insulin resistance, even in the absence of overweight. The global lipid profile of the follicular fluid in PCOS with normal weight as yet has not been investigated. The objection of this pilot study was to explore...
Assisted conception using buserelin and human menopausal gonadotrophins in women with polycystic ovary syndrome Objective To compare the outcome of in vitro fertilisation (IVF) and gamete intrafallopian transfer (GIFT) cycles in women with or without ultrasound features of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS...
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), the most prevalent endocrine disorder in women of reproductive age, affects 9 to 18% of women worldwide, depending on diagnostic criteria [1]. PCOS has also been recognized as a metabolic disorder, manifested by abdominal obesity, insulin resistance, dyslipidemia ...
We collected data on clinical features, biochemical markers, and ultrasound findings.Results: Patient age ranged from 11.3 to 20.3 years (mean, 15.7 +/- 1.7 years), and body mass index (BMI) from 17.4 to 64.2 kg/m(2) (mean, 31.7 +/- 7.7 kg/m(2)). Seventy-one percent of patients...
Background: This study aimed to examine the differential variations in the metabolic composition of follicular fluid (FF) among normal-weight patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and controls and to identify potential biomarkers that may offer insights into the early identification and manageme...
Based on the “two-cell, two-gonadotropin” theory, follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH) play a critical role in stimulating the two cellular components of the ovary, granulosa cells and theca cells, respectively, leading to the secretion of ovarian steroids. FSH ...
