We examine the effects of metformin on insulin resistance (IR) and mood including in adolescent and adult women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). This trial was conducted in 19 adolescents (age <= 18 years) and 25 adult (age >18 years) women with PCOS. Anthropometric and measurements including, serum glucose, endocrine panel, and lipid profile were performed at baseline. IR was measured by Homeostasis Model Assessment IR (HOMA-IR). Anxiety and depression were measured by Beck's Anxiety (BAI) and Depression Inventories (BDI-II). All tests were repeated after a 90-day treatment with metformin (1,500 mg/day). The severity of depression and anxiety decreased after 90-day treatment with metformin in women diagnosed with PCOS. The BAI scores were higher in adolescent group while BDI-II scores were higher in the adult group (p = .016). After 90-day metformin treatment, both BDI-II and BAI scores were decreased by 3.3 and 3.4, respectively (p < .001). Indicators of IR and obesity were improved with this therapy. Although the adolescents weighed lower than the adults, baseline HOMA-IR 5.5 +/- 1.7 was higher in this group than 4.4 +/- 1.2 in the adult women (p =.022). The findings suggest that metformin decrease IR and improve mood both in adolescent and adult women with PCOS.
