This favorable effect on insulin and androgens levels, justifies the use of metformin in reproductive disturbances in PCOS women. Metformin treatment was shown to diminish ovarian androgen secretion, while lowering insulin levels in women with PCOS.\n\nIn women with PCOS, metformin treatment may increase ovulation, improve menstrual cyclicity, and reduce seum androgen levels. Metformin has direct effects on the ovary and also reduces the level of insulin that act upon the ovary. It has been indicated that metformin has direct, insulin-independent actions on theca cell steroidogenesis, because in human ovarian theca-like tumor cells, metformin suppressed androstenedione production. Metformin also exert a direct effect on granulosa cells and subsequent reduction of steroid production.\n\nMetformin was shown to improve endothelium dependent vasodilation in insulin resistant patients and potentially protect against atherogenesis and cardiovascular disease.\n\nConsidering gonadotropin ovulation induction or IVF in women with PCOS, metformin coadministration improves the pregnancy outcome and reduces the risk of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome. Metformin therapy throughout pregnancy can reduce the risk of early miscarriage or the incidence of gestational diabetes.\n\nAll patients were pretreated for 3 weeks with monophasic oral contraceptive (OC)(Yasmin; Bayer Schering Pharma, Berlin, Germany) before COS. Five days after OC discontinuation, COS for IVF/ICSI was commenced. GnRH antagonist protocol was used for COS in all subjects. Patients were randomly allocated into the metformin or control groups, using sealed envelopes.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'FEMALE', 'stdAges': ['ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '40 Years', 'minimumAge': '20 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* PCOS diagnostic criteria\n\n * 2003 American Society for Reproductive Medicine(ARSM)/European Society of Human Reproduction and Embryology(ESHRE) consensus meeting guideline\n * include two out of three\n\n 1.
