Effects of Adding Quercetin or Alpha Lipoic Acid to Usual Care on Symptoms and Blood Markers in Iraqi Women With Polycystic Ovary Syndrome

Sponsor: Al-Mustansiriyah University

Summary

This study will investigate whether the addition of Quercetin or Alpha-Lipoic Acid (ALA) to standard metformin therapy can improve symptoms, hormone levels, metabolic health, and quality of life in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Over 3 months, participants will be randomly assigned to one of three groups: metformin alone, metformin plus Quercetin, or metformin plus ALA. Researchers will measure changes in hormones, blood sugar, cholesterol, and antioxidant markers, as well as quality of life and medication adherence. Physical measurements and side effects will also be recorded to assess safety and overall benefit.
