research Characterization of polycystic ovary syndrome among Flo app users around the world
Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) symptoms vary globally, with bloating, high cholesterol, and glucose levels being common; the current diagnostic criteria may need refining.
research Hyperandrogenism and menstrual imbalance are the best predictors of metformin response in PCOS patients
High levels of male hormones and irregular periods best predict how well PCOS patients will respond to metformin treatment.
research Polymorphism of CAG and GGN repeats of androgen receptor gene in women with polycystic ovary syndrome
Longer GGN repeats in the androgen receptor gene are linked to polycystic ovary syndrome.
research Inhibition of 5α-reductase alters pregnane metabolism in the late pregnant mare
Inhibiting 5α-reductase increases progesterone levels in late pregnant mares.
research In vivo effects of epidermal growth factor on epidermal pattern formation and hair follicle initiation in the marsupial bandicoot Isoodon macrourus
Epidermal growth factor disrupts hair and gland formation in bandicoots.
research Androgen receptor CAG repeat length is associated with ovarian reserve but not with ovarian response
The length of CAG repeats in the androgen receptor gene is linked to ovarian reserve but does not affect how the ovaries respond to stimulation.
research Combined oral contraceptives promote androgen receptor and oestrogen receptor alpha upregulation in the female prostate (Skene’s paraurethral glands) of adult gerbils (Meriones unguiculatus)
Birth control pills increase certain receptor activities in female gerbil prostate glands and can lead to prostate changes.

research The effects of magnesium supplementation on abnormal uterine bleeding, alopecia, quality of life, and acne in women with polycystic ovary syndrome: a randomized clinical trial
Magnesium supplements improved quality of life for women with polycystic ovary syndrome, but didn't help with acne, hair loss, or abnormal bleeding.
research Microglia: sculptors of the polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS)-like brain?
Microglia, the brain's immune cells, may contribute to Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) by altering the female brain's structure and function, with kisspeptin neurons and GABA neurotransmitters also playing a role.
