Brown Adipose Tissue Modulation in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Using Infrared Thermography

This study will investigate brown adipose tissue-related physiological responses in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Women with PCOS who have normal body mass index, women with PCOS who are overweight or have obesity, and healthy women will be compared. Brown adipose tissue-related heat responses will be evaluated using non-invasive infrared thermography of the supraclavicular region, together with serum UCP-1 levels and metabolic measurements. Participants in the overweight/obesity PCOS group will receive an inositol supplement for 12 weeks, and measurements will be repeated after supplementation. The study will also examine possible relationships between surface temperature responses, dietary intake, physical activity, body measurements, and metabolic and hormonal markers.
