About this study

In PCOS (Polycystic Ovary Syndrome), studies have found impaired incretin secretion and activity, particularly in overweight/obese individuals. Conflicting results exist regarding glucagon-like peptide-1(GLP-1) levels in PCOS patients, with studies reporting reduced, normal, or increased levels. Incretin-based therapy has been suggested as a potential treatment to reverse prediabetes risk by preserving β-cell function in patients with impaired fasting glucose(IFG and impaired glucose tolerance(IGT). The study aims to compare the efficacy of Dapagliflozin to Metformin for the treatment of non-diabetic patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).
