Ovarian Morphology and Theca Cell Androgen Production in Women With Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS)

University of California, San Diego·interventional·Posted May 22, 2014·Updated Aug 12, 2019

In Brief

A clinical study evaluating hCG for Polycystic Ovary Syndrome. Completed, enrolled 39 participants across 1 site.

Detailed Summary

Women with PCOS suffer from excess male hormone (androgen) production by the ovary. Androgen is made by cells that surround follicles that contain eggs. As the follicles (and eggs) grow and mature, there are more androgen producing cells. Women with PCOS have more follicles than normal women and therefore more androgen producing cells. While androgen production has been associated with the number of follicles, the relationship to the individual size of follicles in PCOS or normal women. This study intends to determine whether the size and number of ovarian follicles are correlated to androgen production in PCOS and normal women.
