Uterine anomalies in cell proliferation, energy homeostasis and oxidative stress in PCOS hamsters, M. auratus: Therapeutic potentials of melatonin

Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is a reproductive, endocrine and metabolic disorder. Less is known about the mechanism of its effect on uterine function and therapeutic potential of melatonin. Our aim was to evaluate uterine dysfunction(s) in letrozole induced PCOS and its possible rectification by melatonin.
