Structured nutritional management of insulin resistance in women with Polyendocrine Metabolic Ovarian Syndrome (PMOS) (formerly PCOS) receiving GLP-1RA therapy

Diabetes Res Clin PractPublished structured review

Authors' conclusion

This is not weight-centric care. It is metabolic restoration-focused care - encompassing HOMA-IR trajectory, lean mass and micronutrient status together - supporting a role for the clinical nutritionist within GLP-1RA prescribing pathways for women with PMOS.

Study context

Population
Women with PMOS (formerly PCOS) receiving GLP-1RA therapy
Outcome
Weight, androgens and fasting insulin

Main finding

As reported in the abstract

  • GLP-1RAs produced consistent reductions in weight, androgens and fasting insulin

Further findings

Homeostatic Model Assessment of Insulin Resistance (HOMA-IR)

HOMA-IR outcomes remained heterogeneous across trials, with gains reversing after treatment withdrawal

Nutritional consequence of appetite suppression

Inadequate protein intake and progressive micronutrient depletion - compounding pre-existing PMOS-specific deficits
