Background: Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is one of the most common endocrine disorders in women of reproductive age. Insulin resistance and resultant hyperinsulinemia contribute to hyperandrogenism in these patients. Weight loss or pharmacologic interventions that lower insulin levels reduce androgen levels. This study was planned to evaluate efficacy of metformin versus myoinositol plus d-chiroinositol combination therapy in PCOS patients and its effects on clinical, hormonal and radio diagnostic dimensions.Methods: This was a prospective study for nine months. 50 newly diagnosed PCOS patients from the Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Government Medical College (GMC), Amritsar, were randomly divided into 2 groups. One group was given metformin 500 mg twice daily and another myoinositol plus d-chiroinositol 1000 mg twice daily for 9 months. Follow up was done at 3, 6, 9 months. At each visit, ultrasonography and hormone levels were evaluated. Informed consent was taken. The approval of the Institutional Ethics Committee, GMC, Amritsar was also obtained.Results: The percentage change in free testosterone levels (22.46±6.47) and insulin levels (34.24±15.02) show statistically significant decrease in group 2 (p<0.001). There was statistically significant (p<0.05) fall in AMH levels (22.41±7.78) in group 1. There was no statistically significant difference between the 2 groups in ovarian volume on ultrasonography, random blood glucose levels, luteinizing hormone (LH), follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) levels, estrogen and progesterone levels.Conclusions: It was observed that both treatments are equally effective in the treatment of polycystic ovarian syndrome with better tolerability in myoinositol and d-chiroinositol group.
