    TLDR Funnel seed extract may help balance hormones in PCOS.
    The study investigated the therapeutic effects of funnel seed extract on polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) in 14 female albino rats. The treatment group received 50 mg/kg of funnel seed extract for 60 days. Results showed that the treatment significantly reduced insulin and testosterone levels while increasing follicle stimulating hormone and luteinizing hormone levels, suggesting that funnel seed extract may help regulate hormonal imbalances associated with PCOS.
