Endometrial hyperplasia is a threatening pathology driven by unopposed estrogen stimulus. Moreover, insulin may act on the endometrium, prompting further growth. We aimed at assessing whether D-chiro-Inositol, an insulin sensitizer with estrogen-lowering properties, might improve the condition of patients with simple endometrial hyperplasia without ...

The effect of D-chiro-inositol on renal protection in diabetic mice. [PDF]
D-Chiro-inositol (DCI) exerts a hypoglycaemic effect, participates in lipid metabolism and reduces kidney damage. In this study, we preliminarily explored the protective effect of DCI on renal injury in diabetic mice. Male db/db mice were used in this study. After treatment with DCI (35 and 70 mg/kg/d) for 6 consecutive weeks, random blood glucose (RBG)

D-Chiro-Inositol and LPS Induce a PCOS-Like Hyperandrogenic Response in Human KGN Granulosa Cells. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Hyperandrogenism is a key hallmark of polycystic ovary syndrome, a prevalent endocrine disorder affecting women of reproductive age and often leading to infertility. We previously observed that high doses of D‐chiro‐inositol in mice reduce ovarian aromatase expression, contributing to a hyperandrogenic state.
