Effect of Vitamin D Supplementation on Testosterone Level in Women With Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: A Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Trial
Abstract
The goal of this randomized, double blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial is to learn about, the effect of low dose vitamin D supplementation compares with placebo-controlled group on testosterone level in women with polycystic ovary syndrome. Half of Participants will receive vitamin D and metformin while other half placebo and metformin.
Conditions: PCOS, Vitamin D.
Primary outcome: Total Testosterone.
Enrollment: 66 participants.
How strong is the evidence?
Evidence Hub reads this as a randomized trial, done in people. Its evidence level is 2 of 5 (High · randomized trial). Randomized trials of a reasonable size are the strongest single-study design. Reported size: 66 participants or records.
