N acetylcysteine - infertility

Ferticyst, ovacare forte etc drugs contains n acetylcysteine.
It is helpful in cases of infertility especially having poly cystic ovary disease.
PCOD presents with irregular menstrual cycles, anovulation, insulin resistance etc.
 Contraceptive pills help in regularization of hormonal levels.
But they are not that much effective in correcting the insulin resistance.
 So n acetylcysteine is used for this purpose.
N acetylcysteine helps in:
- Increasing the insulin sensitivity.
Reducing fasting insulin and homocysteine levels.
-And also it enhances the effect of the ovulation induction drugs.
-Reducing the androgen levels.
- Regularizing the menstrual cycles and in optimization of reproductive health.
-Helps in treating the acne and hirsutism.
