Insulin Resistance in Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome Women: Impact of Regularity and Hyperandrogenemia

Increased androgen levels may be intrinsic or aggravated by preexisting IR in women with PCOS (4). Since IR and resulting compensatory hyperinsulinemia are closely related to its pathogenicity and comorbidities, obesity, which is prevalent in a half of PCOS women can be exacerbated (5). Some studies...

Since IR and resulting compensatory hyperinsulinemia are closely related to its pathogenicity and comorbidities, obesity, which is prevalent in a half of PCOS women can be exacerbated (5). Some studies appears that cinnamon significantly decreased serum fasting blood glucose, insulin, homeostatic model assessment for IR, and weight and increased high-density lipoprotein cholesterol compared with placebo (all p
