Summary

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is one of the most common health problems in women of reproductive age, characterized by increased androgen levels, impaired ovulatory functions, and polycystic ovaries. In addition to cosmetic problems including hirsutism and acne, it also poses a risk for significant chronic diseases, including infertility, dyslipidemia, obesity, sleep apnea, diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, and various malignancies.

The aim of this clinical study was to investigate the effects of short-term low-calorie ketogenic diet (LCKD) intervention on anthropometric, biochemical and hormonal parameters in women with PCOS. The main questions it aims to answer are:

* Is a short-term low-calorie ketogenic diet effective on body composition in overweight women with PCOS?
* Is a short-term low-calorie ketogenic diet effective on biochemical and hormonal parameters in overweight women with PCOS?

Participants were diagnosed with PCOS according to the Rotterdam 2003 criteria as a result of the clinical, biochemical and ultrasonographic medical evaluation made by the gynecologist, and those who were found to be eligible for LCKD and volunteered to participate in the study were included in the study.

Researchers are examining whether a low-calorie ketogenic diet applied between two menstrual cycles has any effects on anthropometric, biochemical and hormonal parameters in women with PCOS.
