Detailed Description

Polycystic ovarian syndrome is the most common endocrine disorder . It is associated with chronic anovulation and infertility. The diagnosis is made by clinical and ancillary investigations revealing the presence of irregular menstrual cycles, an ovulation , Hyperandrgenemia , and the presence of polycystic ovaries (ovarian morphology as the presence of 12 or more follicles measuring 2-9 mm in diameter and an increased ovarian volume >10 cm 3) ovulation can be induced with clomiphene citrate (CC), However, ~20%-25% of anovulatory women with PCOS do not respond to CC and are considered to be "clomiphene-resistant( clomiphene citrate resistance means failure to ovulate with 3 months use of clomid at 150 mg/day for 5 days ) Vitamin D may serve as a key in preventing and attenuating the insulin resistance. Vitamin D plays a physiologic role in reproduction including ovarian follicular development and luteinisation, follicle-stimulating hormone sensitivity and progesterone production in human granulosa cells. It also affects glucose homeostasis .

In this trial 100 women with PCO disease that diagnosed by ROTTERDAM CRITERIA (must have any TWO of This findings: Hyperandrogenism, Oligomenorrhea, Polycystic ovaries). Who are taking clomiphene citrate for induction of ovulation and resistant to it, which means failure to ovulate with 3 months of usage of clomid at 150 mg/day for 5 days. They will recieve vitamin D (ossofortin®, Eva Pharma) orally 10000 IU twice weekly for other three months period with clomiphene citrate orally 150 mg/day for 5 days. Number and size of the growing follicles will be monitored before and after taking vitamin D by trans-vaginal ultrasound at day11-14 of the cycle till day 21 to detect effect of vitamin D in ovulation rate.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
EXPERIMENTAL: pcos resistant to cc plus vit d
100 patients who are PCOS and resist CC will receive Vitamin D 10000 IU orally plus 150mg clomid orally for 3 months number and size of growing follicles will be monitored
Adding vitamin D to PCOS patients who are resistant to clomiphene regime for induction will or not improve the Clinical pregnancy rate and will or not increase chances of ovulation and pregnancy.
CLOMID is adrug used for ovulation induction
