Overview

The current study aims to investigate the dynamic serum kisspeptin levels throughout pregnancy and to explore its predictive value for GDM in PCOS.

Description

The current prospective cohort study aims to investigate the dynamic serum kisspeptin levels in the patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) at different trimesters of pregnancy, to analyze the associations between serum kisspeptin, insulin, glucose and testosterone, and to explore the predictive value of kisspeptin for GDM and other complications in PCOS patients.

Eligibility
