Abstract in brief

This study analyzed how acupuncture affects women with polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), finding that it can improve emotional well-being and certain lipid profiles, potentially helping with both mental health and metabolic issues.
After 4 months of acupuncture, patients showed improvements in quality of life scores related to emotions and some blood lipid levels, with reductions in acne, homocysteine, and LDL cholesterol, and increases in beneficial lipoproteins like Apo A1.
However, some metabolic markers, such as blood sugar levels and insulin resistance, did not change significantly, indicating that acupuncture mainly benefits emotional health and specific lipid parameters in women with PCOS.]
