Abstract in brief

  • The study shows that melatonin supplementation in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) for 12 weeks improves mental health by reducing depression and anxiety, and enhances sleep quality.
  • It also positively impacts metabolic parameters by lowering serum insulin, insulin resistance (HOMA-IR), total cholesterol, and LDL levels, while increasing insulin sensitivity (QUICKI).
  • Additionally, melatonin influences genetic expression related to metabolism, notably increasing the activity of genes involved in insulin and lipid regulation, such as PPAR gamma and LDL receptor.]
