Effect of Myo-Inositol Supplementation on Anthropometric Parameters among PCOS Women in Gujranwala
Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome Metabolic and endocrine disorder PCOS affects many premenopausal women. Ovarian dysfunction and androgen excess symptoms and signs explain it. High BMI and WHR, or visceral obesity, are more common in PCOS women. The study aims to evaluate myo-inositol (MI) supplementation on anthropometric measurements in Gujranwala PCOS women. Participants were selected from Life Care Hospital, Gujranwala. Each of the three groups included 30 members. The 3-month intervention concluded. The participants were instructed to consume 2000mg of myo-inositol at night. At the 0, 30, 60, and 90th days of study, weight, height, BMI, and waist-to-hip ratio were measured. The study ended with a comparison of pre-and post-intervention findings. The study found that Myo-inositol considerably(p<0.0001) improved anthropometric parameters. Weight, BMI, and WHR decreased among participants, although significant differences exist between groups(P<0.005) despite minimal variation in mean values. This study found that feeding PCOS women MI decreased weight, BMI, and WHR.
