Time-restricted eating for women with polycystic ovary syndrome
Part of Cancer, Hormones & metabolism, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study looks at whether limiting eating to certain hours of the day (time-restricted feeding) can help improve symptoms in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). If you have PCOS and are overweight, this might be a way to manage your condition without medication.
