Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) currently affects nearly 6-10% of women of reproductive age. A frequent feature of women with PCOS is insulin resistance accompanied by compensatory hyperinsulinemia, and increasing evidence suggests that hyperinsulinemia plays an important role in the pathogenesis of PCOS, pointing the way to new and novel therapy for PCOS. The study was planned with one natural alternative remedy Standardized Fenugreek seeds extract as FurostanolicSaponins and Myo-Inositol.Standardized Fenugreek seeds extract as Furostanolic saponins which contains bioactive components Saponins extracted from Fenugreek seeds improves insulin sensitivity and, in turn, may regulate circulating androgen levels. It improves insulin-mediated glucose
disposal in women with PCOS [1,2]. It also decreased theLuteinizing HormoneLH/FSH (Follicle- Stimulating Hormone) ratio as observed in my last study [2-4]. Myo-inositol not only improves fertility by lowering male sex hormones in both, women with and without PCOS but it could also improve ovulation in women with PCOS. In addition, Myo-inositol also reduces insulin resistance and increases estrogen levels. Myo-inositol reduced testosterone, LH, and insulin levels. The present observation study is to establish efficacy and safety in management of IR and ovarian volume.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
