Title
Investigating the efficacy of natural products on metabolism and on endocrine status in women with PCOS
Review Question
Can natural products improve the metabolic and endocrine status of PCOS patients?
Study Type Included
Inclusion criteria: we are planning to include RCT studies in our research work. Exclusion criteria: we are planning to exclude reviews, meta-analyses, letters, case series, case reports.
Condition Being Studied
Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is one of the most common endocrine disorders, characterized by irregular menstrual cycles, hyperandrogenism, and polycystic ovaries. Metformin is the first-line drug in PCOS women with insulin resistance (IR) and type-2 diabetes mellitus to improve their metabolic and endocrine status in the past 30 years, however, it has several side effects as well. The most serious is lactic acidosis, as it can lead to metabolic acidosis, which can eventually lead to hypotension and hypothermia. Various natural products can increase estrogen levels and antiandrogenic activity; they can reduce LH-, insulin-, testosterone-, cholesterol-, and trigliceride levels; they can optimize body mass index and regulate menstrual characteristics. Improving the metabolic and hormonal parameters of PCOS patients can lead to better health and quality of life, higher pregnancy rate and more women with PCOS can have a child. Our aim is to compare the efficacy of natural products to short-term metformin (8-24 week) or placebo (6-24 week) in women with PCOS. Our vision is that less metformin might be sufficient to improve the metabolic and endocrine status in women with PCOS if natural products are regularly used in addition to metformin.

Human Disease Modelled
Intervention
Natural products [foeniculum vulgare (fennel), cimicifuga racemosa (actaea racemose/black chosh), grifola frondosa (maitake), vitex agnus-castus (chasteberry), berberine, mentha spicata (spearmint), Cinnamon (cinnamomum), origanum majorana (marjoram), trigonella foenum-graecum (fenugreek), glycyrrhiza glabra (licorice), glycyne max (soy), punica granatum (pomegranate), salvia oficinalis (sage), panax (ginseng), stachys lavandulifolia (wood betony), linum usitatissimum (flax), paeonia lactiflora (chinese pheony), tribulus terrestris (puncture vine), curcuma (turmeric), omega-3 fatty acid with or without vitamin E, vitamin D, myo-inositol with or without folic acid, D-chiro inositol].
Comparator Control
Short-term metformin or placebo
Main Outcome
Primary outcomes: body mass index; dietary intakes (carbohydrate-, protein-, total fat); glucose-, insulin level; Homeostatic Model Assessment of Insulin Resistance (HOMA-IR); total cholesterol-, triglyceride-, low-density lipoprotein (LDL)- and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) level. Secondary outcomes: Should data volume permit, the following outcomes will be analyzed as well physical activity; waist to hip ratio (WHR); menstrual charachteristics; blood pressure; area under the insulin curve; area under the glucose curve; total testosterone-, free testosterone-, dehydroepiandrosterone sulphate (DHEAS)-, sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG)- and androstendione level. Measures of effect Odds ratios (OR) for dichotomous outcomes, Weighted- or standardized mean difference (WMD or SMD) for continuous ones.
