New hope for teens: drug vs. diet battle for PCOS symptoms
NCT ID NCT03919929
Summary
This study tested whether a 12-week treatment with the medication semaglutide works better than an active diet program for teenage girls with obesity and PCOS. The main goal was to see which approach more effectively reduces dangerous fat in the liver and improves how the body uses insulin. Researchers also looked at changes in weight and other markers of metabolic health.
