| Core Tip |
Women with polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) suffer from insulin resistance and an atherogenic state evidenced by increased carotid artery intima-media thickness (CIMT). Fortunately, this increase in CIMT is reversible with metformin therapy, an insulin-sensitizing drug. Moreover, treated cases have restored ovulatory cycles and exhibited reduced androgen levels. First, we primarily aimed to examine whether the area under the curve of the internal carotid artery (AUC-ICA) Doppler is related to insulin resistance among PCOS women who presented with menstrual disturbances. Second, is to examine if AUC-ICA can be a useful marker in assessing changes in insulin resistance among treated cases with metformin for follow-up. |
