Story summary
- A new clinical trial suggests intermittent fasting may help manage symptoms of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), a hormonal condition affecting nearly 20% of women.
- Involving 76 women divided into intermittent fasting, calorie counting, and a control group, the trial found weight loss from intermittent fasting lowered active testosterone levels.
- Only intermittent fasting significantly reduced active testosterone, suggesting that longer adherence may yield symptom improvements.
