It also presents a new clinical and diagnostic approach and clearly explains the value of insulin-sensitizing agents, or ?insulin sensitizers,? in reducing hyperandrogenism and improving fertility outcome. Detailed information is provided on the use of insulin sensitizers such as metformin and inositol, and suitable therapeutic protocols are described. All too often, PCOS is treated by gynecologists only as an endocrine disorder, without recognition of the very important part that insulin plays in the syndrome. Practitioners will find this book to be a valuable source of information on PCOS as a metabolic syndrome and a comprehensive guide to achieving good treatment results. . 606 $aGynecology 606 $aEndocrinology 606 $aGynecology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H26006 606 $aEndocrinology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H33053 615 0$aGynecology. 615 0$aEndocrinology. 615 14$aGynecology. 615 24$aEndocrinology. 676 $a610 676 $a616.4 676 $a618.1 700 $aStracquadanio$b Mariagrazia$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0835573 702 $aCiotta$b Lilliana$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910300233203321 996 $aMetabolic Aspects of PCOS$92529851 997 $aUNINA
