Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
To investigate the relationship between heavy metal exposure (e.g., lead, mercury, cadmium, and arsenic) and the development of PCOS in women of reproductive age. To assess the improvement in insulin resistance with dapagliflozin compared to metformin in women with PCOS, as measured by the Homeostatic Model Assessment for Insulin Resistance (HOMA-IR). Timepoint: HOMA index at end of study, at 12 weeks

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
1. To evaluate the changes in efficacy parameters (Hormone levels - serum free testosterone, sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG), total testosterone (TT), dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEAS), androstenedione (AD), and luteinizing hormone (LH) and Follicle Stimulating hormone (FSH) levels, Lipid profile, biochemical parameters (waist circumference, hip circumference, body weight, BMI, Blood Pressure and glucose levels) between the two treatment groups.Timepoint: At end of 12 weeks;2. To assess the safety of dapagliflozin compared to metformin in the treatment of insulin resistance in women with PCOS by evaluating the number of adverse events with grades 3-5 warranting withdrawal of drugs during the treatment period.Timepoint: Throughout the study
