About

To investigate whether intensive metabolic intervention of PCOS women before pregnancy can improve pregnancy outcome.Besides, the investigators aim to investigate the best therapy strategy of metabolic intervention before pregnancy.The investigators plan to recruit PCOS women at childbearing age. By using acarbose, GLP-1 analogue, berberin et al. the investigators will intervent the participants' metabolic statues for 3 months before pregnancy and to compare outcome in each group.

To investigate whether intensive metabolic intervention of PCOS women before pregnancy can improve pregnancy outcome.Besides, the investigators aim to investigate the best therapy strategy of metabolic intervention before pregnancy.The investigators plan to recruit PCOS women with IGR / DM not effective of metformin treatment at childbearing age. By using acarbose, GLP-1 analogue, berberin et al. the investigators will intervent the participants' metabolic statues for 3 months before pregnancy and to compare outcome in each group.
