FertilityGoals
•Havingahealthychildsafely• Gettingpregnant
• Ensureovulation• Bypasshostilecervicalmucus
• Stayingpregnant• Reducingmiscarriagerisk
• Safepregnancy• Reducingriskstomom• Reducingriskstochild

Goal#1:Ovulation
• Firstline:• Improveddiet• Aerobicactivity• Inositol• Metformin
• Ifinsufficient:• Clomipheneorletrozole• Dexamethasone• Invitrofertilization

DietaryGoals
INCREASE: DECREASE:
•Complexcarbohydrates•Monosaturated fats• Fiber•Omega-3fattyacids

Dietaryrecommendations• Low“GlycemicIndex”food:
• Producesgreaterweightloss• Induceslessinsulinresistance

Exercise
•Musclecellsmetabolize80%ofglucose•Aerobicexercise:
• 3to4sessionsof20-30min/wk• Burns100-200kcal• 40%improvementininsulinsensitivitythatlasts2days.

MedicinesforPCOS
• Inositol• Metformin• Clomiphene• Letrozole• Dexamethasone• Gonadotropins(FSH,LH)
![Page 14: PCOS and Your Fertility - PCOS ChallengePCOS and Your Fertility Jim Toner, MD, PhD Atlanta Center for Reproductive Medicine PCOS Consequences • Androgen excess • Acne, oily skin](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022063019/5fe0ff54d7df2a00bf4c2023/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Inositol• 2types,normallypresentinourbodies
• Myo-inositol– hasdirectovarianeffects• Precursorofinositoltriphosphate,asecondmessengerofinsulin,FSHandTSH
• D-chiro-inositol– actsoutsidetheovarianprimarily• Normallyconvertedbyinsulinepimeraseintomyo-inositol
• Normallypresentin40:1ratio
• Myo-inositol• FacilitatesglucoseuptakeandFSHaction
• D-Chiro-inositol• Facilitatesglucoseuptakeandglycogensynthesis

Metformineffects
• Decreases insulin secretion levels & LH
• Increased SHBG
• Decreases androgens§ Total T ß 38%§ Free T ß 58%§ Androstenedione ß 58%
§Reduction in weight§ Improved ovulation rates§ Improved pregnancy rates§Reduced miscarriage rates

Advantagesofletrozoleoverclomiphene
• MorepregnanciesinPCOandoverweightpatients• Fewersideeffects
• Headaches,hotflashes,moodeffects• Lessimpactoncervicalmucus• Shorterhalflife
• Fewercysts• Gonebeforeimplantation,solowerriskofaffectingfetaldevelopment

Roleofdexamethasone
• Ifclomipheneandletrozolealonefail
• Reducesandrogenlevels,allowingforbetterovarianresponse
• Dose:0.5to2.0mgdailyeachmorningfromdays3toovulation
