Active clinical trials for "Polycystic Ovary Syndrome"

The purpose of this study is to collect data to help understand why some women develop Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) associated with decreased lower-body fat.

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is the most common reproductive disorder in women of reproductive age and despite decades of research the etiology the disorder is not known. The characteristic hyperandrogenism and anovulation is associated with abnormal neuroendocrine function and insulin resistance. Obesity is a common correlated phenotype of Polycystic ovary syndrome and weight gain worsens the reproductive and metabolic complications. Currently there is no evidence-based treatment plan for infertility in Polycystic ovary syndrome; yet weight loss by dietary restriction and regular exercise are strongly advocated. Weight loss and increased insulin sensitivity appear to drive improvements in reproductive outcomes in women with Polycystic ovary syndrome; however, the mechanism connecting these changes with the reproductive axis is not fully understood.

Polycystic ovary occurs in 15-20% of the population will be submitted to TRA. Whether it is associated with other signs or symptoms (polycystic ovarian syndrome) as if presented in isolation, its therapeutic management has special connotations sometimes favoring the low response although the standard is the tendency to hyperresponsiveness. Although there are studies comparing the combination of FSH and LH and FSH in controlled hyperstimulation of these patients, there are no previous prospective randomized studies comparing administration of urinary FSH (hFSH-HP) with a combination of FSH and HCG (HMG HP). Therefore the aim of this study is to prove that both drugs are comparable in the treatment of these patients. The test substances are marketed in Spain (Fostipur and Meriofert, respectively) with an indication for use in these patients. In this study both medicines will be administered in a randomized way under the usual conditions in which it is used in routine clinical practice to compare the quantity of mature oocytes respect to the total oocytes obtained, as a primary outcome measure.

The primary objective in this proposed study is to determine the effect of dietary fish oil supplementation compared to standard care metformin treatment, and fish oil in combination with metformin on plasma lipids and apoB-remnant lipoprotein metabolism in overweight-obese young women with PCOS.

Although PCOS has been known for many years, its etiology and treatment are not clearly known. The prevalence of PCOS varies between populations. It is a familial endocrinolpathology with a chronic course, multifactorial, polygenic feature seen with an average prevalence of 6-8% in women in the reproductive period.Chronic inflammation is involved in the pathophysiology of many chronic diseases. PCOS, which is a proinflammatory condition, has been associated with insulin resistance and hyperandrogenism in previous studies. Omega-3 fatty acids have anti-inflammatory, anti-thrombotic, anti-arrhythmic properties, reducing lipid levels such as serum triglyceride and LDL cholesterol, and having positive effects on the immune system. Therefore, their deficiencies include fatigue, joint pain, frequent infections, etc. is seen. Omega-6 fatty acids have the opposite effect. DHA is a member of the omega-3 fatty acids family. Dietary components play an important role in chronic inflammation. According to our literature review, there is no study that detects docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) levels in blood and cervical mucus samples in patients with PCOS. We think that we will contribute to the diagnosis and treatment processes of PCOS patients by detecting DHA levels in this study. In this study, we aim to compare the values of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) in serum and cervical mucus samples in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome with the control group.

This study aims to evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety in obese patients with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy.

The goal of this interventional Randomized clinical is to compare the effect of Metformin alone, Cabergoline alone and Metformin and Cabergoline in combination in a sample of Iraqi female patients with polycystic ovary syndrome. The main questions to answer are: What are the effects of the tested regimens on Body mass index (BMI)? What are the effects of the tested regimens on hormonal status? What are the effects of the tested regimens on uterine artery resistive index ? What are the effects of the tested regimens on some inflammatory markers? Participants will be separated into two groups: Group 1 (M): 25 Patients, Received Metformin 500mg per oral twice daily for 90 days duration. Group 2 (D): 25 Patients, Received Dostinex (Pergolin) 0.5 mg per oral (single dose per/week). Group 3 (MD): 25 Pateins, Received metformin 500 mg per oral twice daily for 90 days duration and Dostinex (Pergolin) as 0.5 mg per oral (single dose per/week). Researchers will compare Group 1 (M), Group 2 (D), Group 3 (MD) to observe the effect of the tested treatment regimens on Body Mass Index, Hormonal status, uterine artery resistive index, and some inflammatory markers that are IL-18, Anti-GAD Antibody and GnRH Antibody.

An investigation of the safety and efficacy of tildacerfont in women with PCOS and elevated adrenal androgens

The main purpose of this study is to find out whether taking part in a group-based interpersonal psychotherapy (IPT) program designed to improve mood and lessen stress in girls with PCOS will improve depression, unhealthy eating behaviors, weight, and insulin resistance.

This is a study protocol for a multicenter, randomized, and controlled trial. In this protocol, we present a randomized controlled trial comparing acupuncture pretreatment followed by letrozole vs letrozole alone in polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) women with anovulatory infertility. The high prevalence of insulin resistance (IR) in women with PCOS women is considered to be one of the major pathophysiological changes of PCOS, leading to anovulatiory infertility. A study has shown that electro-acupuncture could significantly improve insulin sensitivity. The effect of acupuncture pretreatment on anovulatory PCOS women followed by ovulation induction has not been investigated before. A total of 384 patients enrolled in this study will be randomized into one of two groups. The treatment group: a 16 week acupuncture pretreatment followed by 4 cycles of letrozole and the control group: 4 cycles of letrozole alone. The primary outcome is the live birth rate. We postulate that acupuncture pretreatment followed by letrozole results in a higher live birth rate when compared with letrozole alone.
