Myo-inositol Versus Clomiphene Citrate as First Line Treatment for Ovulation Induction in PCOS
Abstract
Specific aim: To compare inositol and the golden standard first line treatment of ovulation induction, namely clomiphene citrate.
Conditions: Ovulation Induction, Polycystic Ovary Syndrome, Clomiphene, Inositol.
Primary outcome: Rate of cumulative ongoing pregnancy (a pregnancy diagnosed by ultrasonic visualisation of one or more gestational sacs with fetal heart beat) after 3 treatment cycles with inositol versus clomiphene citrate for ovulation induction..
Enrollment: 12 participants.
How strong is the evidence?
Evidence Hub reads this as a clinical trial, done in people. Its evidence level is 3 of 5 (Moderate · trial / cohort / secondary analysis). Trials without a large randomized design, cohorts and secondary analyses give moderate evidence. Reported size: 12 participants or records.
