The study evaluates the efficacy of tryptorelin treatment in cases of acne and hirsutism associated with polycystic ovarian (PCO) disease. This non-comparative open study in a sample population of 20 young patients who wished to have children demonstrates the reduction of the hirsutism and acne score after six months' treatment. Tryptorelin was even capable of normalizing the hematic hormonal levels examined and ovarian function following six months of treatment, as well as at an initial follow-up after three months. The authors state their intention of performing a larger trial in order to observe the real efficacy of tryptorelin in a study which includes a 12-month follow-up to assess the pregnancy rate.

Introduction: A variety of hypoglycaemic drugs are used to treat polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), but their efficacy remains insufficient. Glucokinase activators (GKAs) are a unique class of hypoglycaemic medications with emerging potential, notably in significantly reducing insulin resistance (IR). Nevertheless, the efficacy of GKAs in treating PCOS, particularly in the absence or presence of IR, remains uncertain.
