Abstract

A study was conducted to determine the extent of the effect of the hormone resistin on polycystic ovary syndrome in women in the city of Tikrit, in addition to studying the changes occurring in each of the sex hormones such as follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), ovulation hormone (LH), estrogen E2, and testosterone, and also studying the changes occurring in the hormone insulin and sugar levels.
