Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2015, Vol 3, Issue 10
Abstract
Polycystic ovarian disease (PCOD) is a common endocrine disorder. Majority of young females are affected. Insulin resistance along with dysfunction of hypothalamo pituitory adrenal axis is a key etiological factor in development of all manifestations of PCOD. They present with irregular menses, infertility, obesity, hirsutism, acanthosis Nigricans etc. MI(MI),an insulin sensitizer is widely accepted treatment modality. Data suggests variable responses to MI. So we aimed to study efficacy of MI in PCOS. Here 32 cases are recruited those diagnosed by using Rotterdam’s criteria .BMI, menstrual irregularity, infertility, hirsutism, acanthosis Nigricans, acne were common presenting features. Hormonal & biochemical profile was studied S.LH (Luteinizing Hormone), FSH (Follicle stimulating hormone), Serum. Prolactin levels, Serum Insulin levels were studied. Weight loss, menstrual regularity, LH/FSH Ratio, HOMA Index was studied initially & compared all parameters after 3 months of treatment. In our study BMI mean was 26.71, after MI treatment it became 25.6.Differences of all parameters before & after MI suggests, there is significant reduction in BMI & LH/FSH ratio. Other parameters are not affected by MI. It suggests MI has been effective in reducing BMI & LH/ FSH ratio significantly. But there was no change in HOMA index. So MI can be good supportive treatment option in PCOD. The present study gives us idea about efficacy of MI treatment in PCOD cases & will be useful in patient treatment schedules.
