简要总结
This study is determining the therapeutic effect of Vitamin D supplements to Pcos clomiphene resistant polycystic ovarian syndrome Women. Half of patients will receive Vitamin D with metformin while other half metformin only. Then both groups start clomiphene for 3 month
详细描述
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is considered one of the most common endocrine disorders affecting women in their reproductive age. Genetically it is thought to be involving defects in primary cellular control mechanisms resulting in expression of chronic anovulation and androgen excess. Being familial condition , some researches showed it is autosomal dominant while others thought it is complex trait with oligogenic basis.
Diagnosing poly cystic ovary syndrome is based on finding two of three criteria according to Rotterdam consensus 2003 : oligo/anovulation, clinical/ biochemical signs of hyperandrogenism, ultrasound finding of polycystic ovaries. While insulin resistance which affects 50 - 70 % of PCOS patients is considered to be the main reason for hyperandrogenic features, PCOS also leads to various health problems including metabolic disorders (obesity - Diabetes Mellitus - Cardiovascular diseases) in addition to menstrual irregularities and infertility .
In PCOS women there is polymorphism in Vitamin-D receptor (VDR) gene associated with vitamin D level in blood . This gene is isolated from the female reproductive organs . In VDR null mice; uterine hypoplasia, impaired folliculogenesis and infertility is noted . That's why it is thought to be contributing in the genomic regulation of reproduction.
Several studies have investigated the effectiveness of Vitamin D supplementation to PCOS women they found that PCOS women have hypovitaminosis D3 , with increasing evidence that vitamin D affects insulin and glucose metabolism . vitamin D intake in PCOS women may improve hormonal profiles in addition to having anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant effects . Another study concluded that Vitamin D and calcium supplementation to PCOS women have a positive effect on BMI, follicular maturation, regularity of menses, androgen related symptoms, infertility and insulin resistance . Moreover, Vitamin D has a crucial role in ovulation induction in women with PCOS.
Vitamin D and calcium in combination with metformin have significant effect on menstrual regulation and follicular development.
