Doppler Analysis of Ovarian Stromal Blood Flow Changes After Treatment With Metformin Versus Ethinylestradiol-cyproterone Acetate in Women With Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome
This study is undertaken to compare the effects of treatment with commonly used OCP containing ethinylestradiol-cyproterone acetate and metformin in women with PCOS. Special attention will be paid to changes in ovarian stromal blood flow by using Color Doppler and they will be correlated with changes in hormonal parameters post-treatment.
The Effects of Treatment With Oral Contraceptive Pill Containing Ethinyl Estradiol-Cyproterone Acetate and Metformin on Clinical, Hormonal, Metabolic and Ultrasonographic Characteristics in Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is one of the most common endocrine disorder in women of reproductive age and is a leading cause of infertility due to anovulation. Oral contraceptive pills (OCPs) are considered as first line medical therapy to regularize menses in woman with PCOS. However they may worsen the metabolic profile of patients by elevating insulin resistance which is already deranged in PCOS. As there is higher prevalence of insulin resistance in Indian women with PCOS, insulin sensitisers like metformin may be more beneficial. Hence this study is undertaken to compare the combined effect of metformin and OCPs on the clinical, hormonal, metabolic and ovarian ultrasonographic characteristics in patients with PCOS and to evaluate whether this combination of drugs is more advantageous than OCPs or metformin alone in improving the clinical and metabolic profile.
