Özet

Objective: To determine whether hyperinsulinism affects cytochrome P450c17 alpha activity by investigating the correlation between 17-hydroxyprogesterone (17-OHP) hyper-responsiveness to the gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonist, buserelin, and the insulin response to oral glucose in polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).
