Insulin resistance and oxidative marker in women with PCOS.

TLDR
It is suggested that women with PCOS have oxidative stress and elevated CRP irrespective of obesity, however, hyperinsulinemia and Insulin resistance are seen only in obese women withPCOS, indicating that these women are at high risk for developing low grade inflammation and cardiovascular diseases.
Abstract
Polycystic Ovary Syndrome is a multifactorial reproductive problem and a leading cause of female infertility worldwide. Evidences have shown that Oxidative Stress and decreased antioxidant status a...

Profound Peripheral Insulin Resistance, Independent of Obesity, in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome

TL;DR: PCO women have significant insulin resistance that is independent of obesity, changes in body composition, and impairment of glucose tolerance, and PCO is associated with a unique disorder of insulin action.

Lifestyle changes in women with polycystic ovary syndrome

TL;DR: Lifestyle intervention improves body composition, hyperandrogenism (high male hormones and clinical effects) and insulin resistance in women with PCOS, and provided benefits when compared to minimal treatment for secondary reproductive, anthropometric and reproductive outcomes.

Restoration of reproductive potential by lifestyle modification in obese polycystic ovary syndrome: role of insulin sensitivity and luteinizing hormone.

TL;DR: It is concluded that lifestyle modification without rapid weight loss leads to a reduction of central fat and improved insulin sensitivity, which restores ovulation in overweight infertile women with PCOS.
