2 Redox biology and endocrine dysregulation in PCOS 2.1 OS pathways in PCOS: sources of ROS and antioxidant defense impairment Emerging evidence identifies PCOS as a disorder of redox dyshomeostasis, contributing to its complex reproductive, endocrine, and metabolic manifestations ( Among endogenous sources, mitochondrial electron transport chain (ETC) inefficiency stands out as a dominant ROS generator in PCOS ( Androgen excess emerges not only as a hormonal hallmark of PCOS but also as a direct ROS instigator ( While ROS sources increase, antioxidant defenses in PCOS are often found depleted ( 2.2 Mitochondrial dysfunction, lipid peroxidation, and redox imbalance in oocytes and granulosa cells The competence of oocytes and their surrounding granulosa cells is fundamentally governed by mitochondrial health, balanced redox homeostasis, and membrane integrity ( LPO is an evident indicator of oxidative injury in ovarian cells

To find out if sperm count is normalized in men using hCG plus TRT, several studies have found that 17OH-P blood level is correlated to intratesticular testosterone (ITT) required for the testicles to make sperm, so testing for this hormone could not only save time while optimizing HCG dose/frequency but also eliminate the need to perform testicular aspirations, a very difficult procedure to do
Balance is always more beneficial than excess
