简要总结

Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCO) is a metabolic disorder that afflicts the women of childbearing age. An approximate of 5-10% women are the victim of this disorder. PCOS is a leading cause of infertility in females these days and is characterized by Hyperandrogenism, Chronic Anovulation, Impaired fertility, obesity, Hirsutism, Acne, Obesity, Metabolic disturbances (dyslipidemias, Hyperinsulinemia, insulin resistance, and type- 2 diabetes), and Endometrial Hyperplasia. This study will test a combination of herbal medications (Melats P) in women with PCOS to determine which works best to overcome infertility.

详细描述

Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome is a point of concern these days in female population around the world.The patients feel psychological and mentally unhealthy. PCO effects around 6- 14% of women worldwide. PCOS is characterized by hormonal dis-regulation and hyperinsulinemia. Improvements in sex hormones and insulin sensitivity in PCOS women, either through lifestyle changes or through pharmaceutical intervention, have consistently resulted in a marked improvement in the reproductive and metabolic abnormalities in PCOS Commonly prescribed treatment for PCOS include oral contraceptives (OCPs), metformin, pioglitazone, estrogen, GnRH agonist, myo-inositol, letrozole and clomiphene citrate. Despite their effectiveness in symptom relief and ovulation induction, these treatments are associated with adverse effects including weight gain, cardiac issues, lactic acidosis, dysmenorrhea, and abdominal discomfort (Hussain et al., 2022). Given the limitations of conventional drugs, Herbal therapies are gaining attention for their multi-targeted ability to restore natural hormonal balance, improve ovulation and offer symptom relief with minimal side effects (Hussain et al., 2022). In this context, the present study is designed to explore the therapeutic benefits of a novel polyherbal formulation that includes Momordica charantia L., Linum usitatissimum, Symplocos racemose bark, Allium cepa L., Tribulus terrestris, and eggshell. These ingredients were selected based on their various pharmacological properties that are relevant to the pathophysiology of PCOS. This study will evaluate the safety and effectiveness of Melats P in achieving a successful menstruation regulation in PCOS women.We will recruit 3 groups , First group with conventional treatment (Metformin ) , Second with Alternative medicine having a herbal Formulation ( Melats P) and Third group patients will receive both Conventional (Metformin) and Herbal Formulationn (Melats P).

主要结局

Regulation of Menstrual Cycle

时间窗: Baseline to 4 months

Improvement and restoration of regular ovulatory menstrual cycles ( cycle length 21-35 days) after 4 months of treatment, assessed through menstrual history and ultrasonographic confirmation of ovulation. Ovulation confirmed by transvaginal ultrasonography, defined by the presence of a dominant follicle followed by follicular rupture during the treatment period.

  • Serum Luteinizing Hormone (LH) Levels(Baseline and after 4 months)
  • Serum Testosterone Levels(Baseline and after 4 months)
  • Glycated Hemoglobin (HbA1c) Level(Baseline and after 4 months)
  • Fasting Serum Insulin Concentration(Baseline and after 4 months)
  • HOMA-IR(Before and after 4 months)
  • Body Weight(Baseline and after 4 months)
