    TLDR Treating PCOS patients with HP HMG significantly raises the risk of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome, needing careful dose management.
    The study "Risk of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome in infertile patients with PCOS treated by HP HMG" by Manar Tareq Mohammed, Hamza Elmahaishi, Narges R Ben Halim, and Elmahaishi MS, investigates the risk of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) in infertile patients with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) who are treated with Highly Purified Human Menopausal Gonadotropin (HP HMG). The study found that the risk of OHSS in these patients is significant, suggesting that careful monitoring and dosage adjustments are necessary when treating PCOS patients with HP HMG to prevent this potentially serious complication. The study, however, does not mention the number of participants involved, which is a crucial factor in determining the strength of the study.

      in Research  692 upvotes 1 month ago
      Scalp biopsies are crucial for diagnosing hair loss conditions like Diffuse Unpatterned Alopecia (DUPA) and retrograde hair loss, as treatments like finasteride and dutasteride may not be effective if other conditions are present. Combining PPAR-GAMMA agonists with retinoids could improve treatments for conditions like Lichen Planopilaris.
