Novel biochemical study of the impact of trace elements (zinc & magnesium) in polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS)
Keywords:
Polycystic ovarian syndrome, magnesium, zinc, Glucose, Sex hormonesAbstract
The study focused on the zinc and magnesium and its relationship with the Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) in women. Where was it collected 61 samples of PCOS women and 45 samples as a control group. The results showed a significant decrease in zinc at (P = 0.001), in women with PCOS. The findings in this study revealed the presence of a link between high insulin levels and polycystic ovarian syndrome, the statistical results demonstrate a positive significant association between insulin and estrogen at (p=0.008), and also found a significant negative correlation between zinc and magnesium with insulin at (p=0.018) and (p=0.001), respectively, for those with the syndrome, due to the high level of insulin in their blood and the inability of zinc and magnesium to play their role in controlling the insulin and blood sugar level. Finally, the study showed that there is a new strong relationship between zinc and magnesium on PCOS and abortion.
