Background
Girls with obesity and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and women with PCOS have altered gut microbiota.
Objective
To study the gut microbiota composition of girls with PCOS without obesity (age, 15.8 years; body mass index [BMI] 25 kg/m2) and the effects of randomized treatments with an oral contraceptive (OC, N = 15) or with spironolactone‐pioglitazone‐metformin (SPIOMET, N = 15) for...
Background
Insulin resistance and hepato‐visceral (central) fat excess are thought to contribute to an earlier timing of adrenarche/pubarche and puberty/menarche; this earlier timing in turn relates often to a mismatch between prenatal and postnatal weight gain, which can be estimated by calculating the Z‐score change from birth weight (BW) to body mass index (BMI) in childhood.
