All values are mean (SE). Crude Significances are based on independent t test and adjusted significances are based on ANCOVA with variables age, BMI, DBP, SHBG and considering baseline value of each variable as covariates. PCOS; Polycystic ovary syndrome, FBS; Fasting blood sugar, HOMA-IR; Homeostasis model assessment-insulin resistance, and *; Statistically significant (P<0.05).
