What this Trial Is About
Researchers are evaluating the impact of a short-term educational and lifestyle support program on women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome PCOS who also have obesity. This feasibility study aims to improve health-related quality of life and assess changes in body composition, metabolic, and inflammation markers. The intervention is delivered by a multidisciplinary team through live virtual group sessions using an evidence-based PCOS curriculum. Participants are randomly assigned to either the intervention group, which receives comprehensive PCOS education and lifestyle modification support, or a standard care group without intervention. Assessments include body composition analysis using a medical Body Composition Analyzer, laboratory tests, and questionnaires. The primary outcome measures changes in quality of life over four months, with secondary outcomes evaluating changes in adiposity, cardiometabolic, and inflammation biomarkers. During the study, participants complete body composition scans, lab work, and health questionnaires at baseline and after four months. Researchers track changes in quality of life scores and metabolic markers to understand the interventions effects. The study also monitors participant safety and adherence over this four-month period, with no specific follow-up beyond the intervention timeframe.
