Table 1.
The levels of testosterone, insulin, glucose, HOMA-IR, and HOMA-IS in rats of PCOS, PCOS-sage tea, and control groups
| Group | Control | PCOS group | PCOS-sage tea |
|---|---|---|---|
| Testosterone (ng/ml) | 0.49±0.0048 | 2.3±0.05774 | 2.4±0.1581 |
| Insulin | 2.484±0.0171 | 3.103±0.3951 | 3.629±0.4736 |
| Glucose (mg/dl) | 88.07±3.599 | 130.1±8.311** | 99.81±6.587≠ |
| HOMA-IR | 0.5383±0.02227 | 0.9928±0.1314* | 0.9091±0.1478 |
| HOMA-IS | 46.12±1.988 | 26.89±3.315** | 31.34±5.260* |
Data are expressed as mean±SEM (n=6). *p<0.05 versus the control group; **p<0.01 versus the control group; and ≠p<0.05 versus the PCOS group. HOMA-IS: Homeostasis model assessment for insulin sensitivity; and HOMA-IR: Homeostasis model assessment for insulin resistance.
