NIH grant to support Translational Research Center for PCOS
Date:5/12/2008

oduction and infertility research. The centers also serve as national resources for the training and career development of new scientists electing to pursue research in high priority areas of reproduction and infertility research.

In the 1980s, Nestler was among the first scientists in the world to suggest that insulin was an important reproductive hormone. His pioneering work to induce ovulation through the use of such insulin-sensitizing drugs as metformin has led to the common use of metformin to treat infertility in women with PCOS. In 1998, in an article in the New England Journal of Medicine, Nestler's research team was the first to publish findings on the combination therapy of metformin and clomiphene to promote ovulation.
