摘要
Hyperinsulinemic hyperandrogenism is the core of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), and accordingly low-dose flutamide-metformin proved so far to be a most effective approach to normalize the broad spectrum of PCOS anomalies in nonobese adolescents and young women. For safety reasons, it is wise to combine flutamide-metformin with a contraceptive, for example, an oral or transdermal estroprogestagen.
