Active clinical trials for "Polycystic Ovary Syndrome"

The aims of the present study is to examine whether Time-Restricted Feeding (TRF) is a safe and effective regimen to improve insulin resistance and decrease body weight in overweight/obese Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) patients over 16 weeks compared to reduced energy restriction.

PCOS patients were treated every day, with one sachet containing 2000 mg myo-inositol, 500 mg L-tyrosine, 40 mcg chromium picolinate, 55 mcg selenium, 200 mcg folic acid. All patients underwent, before starting the therapy, after 3 months and 6 months, hormonal evaluation , hirsutism scoring and ovulation assesment. Most of them during the treatment improved their symptoms.

SUMMARY: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is the most common endocrine disorder among reproductive age women with a prevalence as high as 15%. The clinical symptoms of PCOS including menstrual dysfunction, infertility, hirsutism, alopecia, acne, and the possible increased risk of diabetes and cardiovascular disease have been reported to be significant contributors to psychological morbidity and impact health-related quality of life. For women with PCOS, the changes in physical appearance and the associated mood disorders appear to be deleterious for sexual function. Vitamin D deficiency (<20 ng/ml serum concentration of 25[OH]D), which affects from 67% to 85% of women,4 is closely linked to symptoms of PCOS. The main physiologic role of vitamin D is to regulate calcium and phosphorus homeostasis and to promote bone health. Although there has been an increase in awareness of the importance of sexual dysfunction and QoL in women with PCOS, few studies have evaluated the outcomes of treatment for PCOS upon sexual and subjective health status of women. The goals of this study are: To evaluate the prevalence of sexual dysfunction (SDy) in women with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) To determine the effects of Vitamin D therapy, with and without hormonal contraceptives, on SDy in women with PCOS in the absence of depression. METHODS: The study will enroll 60 women diagnosed with PCOS and reporting SDy at the Wright State Physicians (WSP) OB-GYN Practice and the WSP Family Medicine Practice. All participants will take vitamin D 600IU/day and will choose between hormonal and non-hormonal contraceptive methods (target of 30 participants in each group). Participants will complete three study visits (Initial, Month 3, and Month 6). Vitamin D levels will be drawn at the beginning of the study and again at 3 and 6 months after initiation of vitamin D therapy. Each participant will be asked to complete the Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI) and the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) prior to initiation of treatment and again at 6 months.

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is one of the most common endocrine disorder in women of reproductive age and is a leading cause of infertility due to anovulation. Oral contraceptive pills (OCPs) are considered as first line medical therapy to regularize menses in woman with PCOS. However they may worsen the metabolic profile of patients by elevating insulin resistance which is already deranged in PCOS. As there is higher prevalence of insulin resistance in Indian women with PCOS, insulin sensitisers like metformin may be more beneficial. Hence this study is undertaken to compare the combined effect of metformin and OCPs on the clinical, hormonal, metabolic and ovarian ultrasonographic characteristics in patients with PCOS and to evaluate whether this combination of drugs is more advantageous than OCPs or metformin alone in improving the clinical and metabolic profile.

PCOS-RCE is an observational, cross-sectional, two-arm study that is aimed at determining if an established diagnosis of polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) influences the number of blood vessel-forming stem cells in the bloodstream. Circulating progenitor cells will be enumerated and the distribution patterns of these cell types will be assessed to determine if these parameters differ between individuals with PCOS and individuals without PCOS. Specifically, this study will evaluate if differential regenerative cell exhaustion (RCE) may account, at least in part, for the differences in cardiovascular risk reported between individuals with a diagnosis of PCOS and those without.

Study objective is to determine the effect of High intensity interval training on psychological wellbeing, Anthropometrics and Quality of life in females with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome

Evaluation of the efficacy of inositol treatment in women with PCOS in relation to the phenotype (according to the Rotterdam Criteria)

This study was conducted to evaluate the efficacy of the MEtabolic Syndrome REduction in NAvarra (RESMENA) diet versus a control diet based on American Heart Association (AHA) recommendations for the treatment of PCOS in adolescents with obesity and PCOS. A total of 40 adolescents diagnosed with PCOS between the ages of 13-18 years were randomized to either a Resmena or control diet for 6 months. Dietary status, anthropometry, body composition, biochemical parameters, and reproductive endocrine hormones were compared between the 2 groups before and after the intervention.

The study aims to investigate the relationship between fasting insulin and Homeostatic Model Assessment of Insulin Resistance (HOMA-IR) across various demographic factors, including age, sex, race/ethnicity, BMI, and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) diagnosis. By analyzing these variables, the study seeks to identify potential variations in insulin levels, which could provide valuable insights into the impact of different factors on metabolic health and the development of insulin-related conditions.

This study evaluate the addition of PTX and ALA to clomiphene citrate in the treatment of polycystic ovary.
