No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The polycystic ovary syndrome is intimately associated with body weight and nutrition.The genomic era did not bring a breakthrough to the understanding of the syndrome. The recent surge of studies on gut microbiome has raised the possibility that the specific diet, which often affect these women favorably, would change their gut microbiome. Hence, the investigators will examine their gut microbial population in comparison to normal ovulatory women and then examine whether a low carbohydrate diet causes favorable change in their gut microbial population.
