Myoinositol Therapy May Adjust The Metabolic Deregulation in Infertile Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) Women Through Modulation of The TyG Index-BMI: A Comparative Study Versus Metformin
Abstract
The study aimed to assess how a 6-month insulin sensitizer therapy impacts insulin resistance, glucose tolerance, and hormonal levels in women with PCOS. Researchers evaluated 156 PCOS patients, measuring their BMI, HOMA-IR (for insulin resistance), TyG index, TyG index-BMI, and total testosterone. Participants were divided into two groups, receiving either metformin or a myoinositol/d-chiro-inositol combination for six months, after which all parameters were re-evaluated to determine the percentage of change.
Conditions: PCOS.
Primary outcome: Success Rate of Treatment Regimens in Restoring Menstrual Regularity and/or Achieving Pregnancy.
Enrollment: 156 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: 156 participants or records.
