Prenatal growth restraint followed by catch-up of weight: a hyperinsulinemic pathway to polycystic ovary syndrome
Fertility and SterilityFrancis de Zegher M.D., Ph.D. et al. - One of the pathways to polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) starts with an early-life sequence of prenatal growth restraint followed by catch-up of weight during infancy. This sequence results by mid-childhood in a pre-PCOS state including hyperinsulinemia, a low-grade proinflammatory state, an amplified adrenarche (with or without precocious pubarche), and an adipose body composition even in the absence of obesity
A 22yo Type 1 diabetic on Ramipril for microalbuminuria but always normotensive & a non smoker also has polycystic ovary syndrome. She wishes to have contraception, preferably oral. Would COC or POP be preferable?
Using TRIP and Medline, we were unable to find evidence that considered contraception choices for a patient with both type 1 diabetes and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). We found no robust evidence on which to base a selection of any specific contraception for this patient, and found information questioning both POP and COC, suggesting specialist advice is needed.
Use of antiandrogens as therapy for women with polycystic ovary syndrome
Fertility and SterilityPaolo Moghetti M.D., et al - Because androgen excess plays a fundamental role in symptoms and, it is likely, in pathogenesis of polycystic ovary syndrome, attenuation of hyperandrogenism appears to be of paramount importance in the therapy of this condition. Consistently, drugs inhibiting androgen receptor binding not only are an effective tool in hirsutism treatment but also show favorable effects on body composition and metabolic features of these women

Single nucleotide polymorphism in exon 17 of the insulin receptor gene is not associated with polycystic ovary syndrome in a Korean population
Fertility and SterilityEung-Ji Lee M.Sc., et al. - Conclusion: To assess the association between the single nucleotide polymorphism of the insulin receptor (INSR) gene and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) in a Korean population...Conclusion(s): The C/T polymorphism in exon 17 of the INSR gene is not associated with susceptibility of PCOS in a Korean population
Reduction in hematocrit level after pioglitazone treatment is correlated with decreased plasma free testosterone level, not hemodilution, in women with polycystic ovary syndrome
Clinical Pharmacology & TherapeuticsRachele Berria, MD, et al. - Thiazolidinediones have gained widespread use for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus and other insulin resistance states, including polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). In thiazolidinedione-treated patients a small reduction in hemoglobin and hematocrit levels often is observed, and this generally has been attributed to fluid retention
Obesity and polycystic ovary syndrome
Clinical EndocrinologyBarber, T. M., et al. - Conclusion: The aetiology of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is complex and multifactorial. There is much evidence, however, to suggest that adipose tissue plays an important role in the development and maintenance of PCOS pathology. There is a close correlation between adiposity and symptom severity in women with PCOS, and even modest reductions in weight generally translate into significant improvements in menstrual regularity, fertility and hyperandrogenic features
