This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This study is testing whether your body responds differently to meals containing plant-based protein versus animal-based protein when you have PCOS. Researchers will give you two test meals on separate occasions—one made with plant protein and one with animal protein—and measure how your blood sugar, insulin, and appetite hormones change over the next 4 hours. The goal is to understand which type of protein might be better for managing PCOS symptoms.
Women with PCOS often have trouble managing blood sugar and insulin levels, and diet plays an important role in this. While protein-rich meals can help, we don't know if plant-based or animal-based protein works better specifically for women with PCOS—most research has been done in people without this condition.

You will visit the research facility twice after fasting overnight. At each visit, you'll eat a small test meal (about 350–400 calories) that you'll finish in 10 minutes—one meal with plant protein and one with animal protein. Over the next 4 hours, researchers will take blood samples at regular intervals to measure your insulin, blood sugar, and hunger hormones. You'll also answer questions about how hungry or full you feel.
