Comparing the Effect of Metformin vs. Pep2dia as an Adjunct to Letrozole on Ovulation Induction and Pregnancy Outcomes in Overweight Women With PCOS; A Randomized Controlled Open-Label Pilot Study
Abstract
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the effects of Metformin versus Pep2dia as adjunct treatments to Letrozole on ovulation induction and pregnancy outcomes in overweight women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). The main questions it aims to answer are:
Does Metformin improve ovulation rates more effectively than Pep2dia when used alongside Letrozole? Does Pep2dia enhance pregnancy outcomes compared to Metformin in this patient population?
Participants will:
Receive either Metformin or Pep2dia in addition to Letrozole. Undergo regular monitoring for ovulation and pregnancy outcomes. Researchers will compare the Metformin group to the Pep2dia group to see if there is a significant difference in ovulation and pregnancy rates between the two treatments.
Conditions: PCOS.
Primary outcome: Pregnancy rate:.
Enrollment: 100 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: 100 participants or records.
