Insulin resistance is a complex condition that can lead to many diseases and has few treatment options.

Metformin helps reduce PCOS-related infertility by improving insulin sensitivity and inducing ovulation.

N-acetylcysteine was more effective and had fewer side effects than metformin for improving insulin resistance in women with PCOS.

Women with PCOS have more depression and stress due to high androgen levels, not obesity or insulin resistance.

Some plant-based treatments may help with ovary function, insulin resistance, and excess male hormones in PCOS, but more research is needed to confirm their safety and effectiveness.

The conclusion is that there's a link between high testosterone levels, insulin resistance, and certain skin conditions, regardless of obesity.

Metformin helps with menstrual cycles and insulin levels in PCOS but is less effective for hair growth, diabetes prevention, and weight loss, and may improve fertility and reduce diabetes risk.

Lactate production is important for activating hair growth stem cells.

Lifestyle changes can improve body composition, excess male hormone levels, and insulin resistance in women with PCOS.

People with PCOS, especially if obese, often have NAFLD, linked to obesity, insulin resistance, and high androgen levels.

The conclusion is that the best initial treatment for hirsutism is usually oral contraceptives, with the addition of antiandrogens or insulin sensitizers if needed, and topical eflornithine or laser treatments as supplementary options.

Metformin combined with lifestyle changes improves insulin resistance and reduces testosterone levels in women with PCOS more than lifestyle changes alone.

Blocking the ATX-LPA pathway may improve insulin sensitivity and mitochondrial function in obesity.

The research found that polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) has two distinct types, with one having more severe hormone and insulin issues.

Many young Italian women have hyperandrogenic disorders like PCOS, which are linked to age, body weight, and insulin resistance.

Exercise improves insulin sensitivity and hormone regulation in PCOS rats.

Insulin or IGF-I is needed for hair growth in newborn mice, while minoxidil helps adult mouse hair grow, suggesting a way to study human hair loss.

The conclusion is that removing both ovaries is the best treatment for excess male hormones in postmenopausal women, with medication as another option, and managing insulin resistance is important for diagnosis and treatment.

Women with PCOS have higher 5α-reductase activity, which may be linked to insulin resistance.

Increased HSD11B1 enzyme expression is linked to higher body fat and insulin resistance.

Selenium might help with insulin resistance and cholesterol in PCOS, but more research is needed to confirm its benefits.

Acne is caused by multiple factors including oil production, bacteria, inflammation, and possibly diet and environment.

Stressed fibroblasts greatly increase melanin production in hair, skin, and eye cells, mainly due to a growth factor called bFGF.

Low-dose anti-androgen drugs and certain drug combinations are effective for hirsutism, and insulin sensitizers show promise, especially for those with polycystic ovarian syndrome.

Certain genetic variations in OCT1 may improve insulin sensitivity with metformin in women with PCOS.

Female mice with disrupted 5α-reductase 1 had significant metabolic issues, including stress response problems, insulin resistance, liver fat buildup, and obesity.

Early-onset male hair loss is linked to metabolic syndrome, suggesting a need for heart health monitoring and lifestyle changes.

Both treatments reduced excessive hair growth in PCOS, but there was no difference in weight, hair score, hormone levels, or insulin resistance.

Serum biomarkers like insulin-like growth factor-1 and vitamin D may help diagnose androgenetic alopecia.
