Insulin Resistance Before and During Pregnancy in Women With Polycystic Ovary Syndrome

NCT01475565 · Status: TERMINATED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 2

Last updated 2015-12-14

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) affects about 10% of reproductive-age women. Women with PCOS are at a higher risk of gestational diabetes, which may lead to more pregnancy complications. It is unknown if there are factors that may predict which women are more at risk.

The goal of this study is to evaluate the risk factors of gestational diabetes, such as dietary and physical activity factors, race, and how the body handles its own hormones during pregnancy. Our long term goal is to contribute in finding ways to successfully prevent gestational diabetes.
