Polikistik Over Sendromu: Beslenme Yaklaşımları, Takviyeler ve Doğal Terapiler Üzerine Bir Derleme

Öz

Polikistik Over Sendromu (PKOS), üreme çağındaki genç kadınlarda en sık görülen endokrin bozukluktur. Bu derleme, PKOS’da güncel beslenme yaklaşımları, takviyeler ve doğal terapiler üzerine yapılan çalışmaları ve mevcut literatürü derlemektir. Beslenme ve yaşam tarzı faktörleri de dahil olmak üzere güçlü epigenetik ve çevresel etkilerin altında gelişen PKOS’un kesin nedeni henüz bilinmemektedir. Sıklıkla obezite ile ilişkilendirilen PKOS’un, insülin direncinin varlığı nedeniyle Tip 2 diyabet, lipid profil bozuklukları ve artmış androjen üretimi ile karakterize olarak seyrettiği bilinmektedir. Bu derleme, PKOS’da güncel beslenme yaklaşımları, takviyeler ve doğal terapiler üzerine yapılan çalışmaları ve mevcut literatürü derlemektir. Sonuç olarak Akdeniz diyeti, yüksek proteinli diyetler ve ketojenik diyet gibi özel beslenme modelleri, metabolik ve hormonal parametreler üzerinde olumlu etkiler gösterdiği çalışmalarca bildirilmiştir. Ayrıca, inositol, N-asetil sistein ve nane çayı gibi doğal terapiler, semptom yönetimine önemli bir destek sunmaktadır.

Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS): A Review of Nutritional Approaches, Supplements, and Natural Therapies

Öz

Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is the most common endocrine disorder in young women of reproductive age. This review is to compile the current literature and studies on current nutritional approaches, supplements, and natural therapies in PCOS. The exact cause of PCOS, which develops under strong epigenetic and environmental influences including nutrition and lifestyle factors, is not yet known. It is known that PCOS, which is frequently associated with obesity, is characterized by Type 2 diabetes, lipid profile disorders and increased androgen production due to the presence of insulin resistance. This review compiles the studies and the current literature on current nutritional approaches, supplements and natural therapies in PCOS. In conclusion, studies have reported that special nutritional models such as the Mediterranean diet, high-protein diets and ketogenic diet have positive effects on metabolic and hormonal parameters. In addition, natural therapies such as inositol, N-acetyl cysteine and peppermint tea provide significant support for symptom management.
