The Effect of Standardized Withania Somnifera Extract on Endocrine, Metabolic, and Psychometric Parameters, in Women With Polyendocrine Metabolic Ovarian Syndrome

The Effect of Standardized Withania Somnifera Extract on Endocrine, Metabolic, and Psychometric Parameters, in Women With Polyendocrine Metabolic Ovarian Syndrome: a Randomized Active-controlled Trial

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 6 Aug 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

The objective of this study is to ascertain the impact of a standardized Withania somnifera extract on endocrine, metabolic, and psychometric parameters in women diagnosed with polyendocrine metabolic ovarian syndrome. The assessment will encompass a range of parameters to determine the severity of depression, stress levels, the quality of sleep, blood pressure, body mass index, and body composition. Additionally, biochemical, metabolic, and endocrine blood parameters in serum will be analysed. The trial's findings may yield a safe and easy-to-use method of adjunctive treatment that could complement therapy in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome.
