Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
1.To estimate the hospital-based prevalence of ME-PCOS in male patients with acne grade 3 & 4. 2. To estimate the hospital-based prevalence of other cutaneous markers of ME-PCOS in male patients with acne grade 3 & 4. 3. To estimate hospital-based hormonal and metabolic derangements in male patients with acne grade 3 & 4. Timepoint: at baseline visit: single point cross sectional study

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
