Women volunteers with PCOS are needed for a study undertaken by OHSU (Oregon Health & Science University).
The research, by the University’s Division of Endocrinology, Diabetes and Clinical Nutrition, will focus on the effects of insulin resistance on cortisol production, testosterone levels, and body composition.
Healthy, non-smoking women with PCOS, aged between 18 and 45, may call to find out if they qualify for the study which offers compensation of $800 for three clinical visits.
Please contact Principal Investigator Bethany Klopfenstein MD at 503-494-4020 for further information.
