PLOD1 and Insulin resistance: There was a statistically significant decrease in luteinizing hormone (LH) (10.31 ± 7.92 to 7.42 ± 6.25; p = 0.002), LH/follicle-stimulating hormone ratio (2.34 ± 0.34 to 1.91 ± 0.32; p = 0.000), fasting serum insulin levels (16.71 ± 13.92 to 13.18 ± 9.41; p = 0.041), and homeostatic model assessment for insulin resistance (4.52 ± 1.34 to 2.74 ± 1.28; p = 0.041).
