Abstract
Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) is the main infertility cause due to metabolic and hormonal dysfunctions of the ovaries. This syndrome is comorbid with insulin resistance and substantially increases the risk of endometrial hyperplasia, obesity, breast cancer, myocardial infarction and stroke. Women with PCOS have an increased risk of anovulatory cycles, infertility and miscarriage.One of the promising nutricial directions in the complex treatment of PCOS is the use of myo-inositol. A systematic analysis presented in this paper, showed that oral administration of myo-inositol at a dose of 2-4 g/day helps to reduce insulin resistance, excessive androgen secretion, the risk of hirsutism and acne, normalization of lipid profile and blood pressure. Its reception improves functioning of the reproductive axis in patients with PCOS, normalizes ovulation and formation of mature oocytes. Inclusion of myo-inositol in the process of preparing for the procedure of in vitro fertilization (IVF) can significantly improve the results in patients with PCOS and other disorders associated with infertility.
