文摘Women of normal weight with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and hyperinsulinemia presented high growth hormone (GH) levels in response to the l-dopa test, suggesting that the action of GH and insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) might be responsible for the elevation in LH and the consequent hyperandrogenic anovulation observed in normal weight women with PCOS. Insulin resistance and obesity are related to a reduction in GH secretion in obese women with PCOS.
