This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This study is following women diagnosed with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) to understand how weight changes affect two key problems: high male hormone levels and insulin resistance. Depending on your current weight, you'll receive either a program to prevent weight gain or an intensive diet and exercise program designed to help you lose weight safely. Researchers will track how these changes affect your hormones, insulin, and other health markers over time.
Many women with PCOS struggle with weight and hormone imbalances, but we don't fully understand how weight loss or weight regain affects these problems. This study aims to find out which types of weight loss help most and whether personalized nutrition plans work better than standard diet advice.

If you qualify, you'll join one of two groups based on your current weight. The normal-weight group will follow guidelines to prevent weight gain over three months, including adjusted diet, exercise, and behavioral support. The overweight/obese group will follow an intensive high-protein diet combined with exercise and counseling aimed at losing weight over three months, then transition to a maintenance plan if successful. Some participants may also join a 12-week nutrition sub-study where they receive a personalized meal plan tailored to their specific insulin resistance pattern, with regular check-ins with a dietitian. Throughout, you'll have blood tests and other measurements to track changes in your hormones, insulin levels, and inflammation markers.
