Abstract

Background: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is the most common endocrinopathy in women of reproductive age associated with long-term metabolic and cardiovascular consequences. Aim and objectives: In this research, we aimed to assess the impact of Empagliflozin Metformin with Clomiphene Citrate versus Metformin with Clomiphene Citrate on weight reduction and its impact on folliculometry and ovarian volume in cases of Polycyctic Ovary Syndrome. Subjects and Methods: This was a randomized clinical trial; in which 150 Patients were being randomly assigned into two equal groups; Group A: 75 cases received empagliflozin metformin 12.5/500 mg Continously once daily plus clomiphene citrate 50 mg twice daily for 3 cycles cycles from day 2 of the natural or the withdrawal cycle for 5 days. Group B: 75 cases received metformin 500 mg continously once daily plus clomiphene citrate 50 mg twice daily for 3 cycles from day 2 of the natural or the withdrawal cycle for 5 days. Results: there was a significant variation between the two studied groups regarding BMI hip circumference ovarian characteristics (ovarian volume and AFC), FBG, fasting insulin and ovulation rate. Conclusion: Empagliflozin metformin with clomiphene citrate treatment had beneficial effects on anthropometric parameters (BMI and hip circumference), ovarian characteristics (ovarian volume and AFC), FBG, fasting insulin and ovulation rate in women with PCOS compared to metformin with clomiphene citrate, but no statistically significant variations were seen in number of dominant follicles, pregnancy rate and positive pregnancy.
