Methods: 14 women accompanied by postprandial hyperglycemia with PCOS were administrated by acarbose for 12 weeks.14 age-matched individuals who had similar body mass index and normal menstruation were served as controls. Results: Serum T levels declined significantly from 4.09±1.04 nmol/L to 1.71±0.54 nmol/L (P<0.001), after acarbose treatment for 12 weeks. 12 out of 14 cases restored ovulation and menstrual cycles after acarbose treatment, among which 4 got pregnant. Conclusion: Acarbose may play a role on reducing postprandial hyperglycemia and HbAic levels, increase ISI and FSG/FI, indirectly reduce serum androgen levels through reducing plasma insulin level and recover ovarian ovulation in PCOS women with postprandial hyperglycemia.展开更多
