Association between circulating adiponectin levels and polycystic ovarian syndrome [PDF]
, 2014 Background: Low adiponectin levels in polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) have been largely attributed to obesity which is common among these patients. In addition, evidence also suggests that low adiponectin in PCOS may be related to insulin resistance (
