Can a sleep mask help tame PCOS?
NCT ID NCT05920694
Summary
This study is investigating whether treating sleep apnea with CPAP therapy can improve metabolic and hormonal health in women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS). Researchers are enrolling 20 women with both PCOS and moderate-to-severe sleep apnea to test if using a CPAP machine for 12 weeks reduces insulin resistance and lowers testosterone levels. The goal is to see if improving sleep and nighttime breathing can be a useful tool for managing PCOS symptoms.
