Abstract

Hypercaloric in women of childbearing age is one of the causes of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) with insulin resistance. Increased inflammation (tumor factor necrosis-α (TNF-α) and interleukin-6 (IL-6)) is the impact of endocrine and metabolic disorders involved due to metabolic syndrome, obesity, and diabetes mellitus. This study aims to evaluate whether a high-protein diet can reduce insulin and interleukin-6 levels, which are key indicators of polycystic ovary syndrome, and whether these changes can help in the treatment of the syndrome. This study used a prepost test only control design, true experimental, with a total sample of 6 female Rattus norvegicus rats aged 2–3 years (150–200 g). It consists of 4 groups, namely the negative control group (K-), the positive control group (K+), the treatment group (P), and the group without treatment (P-). The study examined the rat blood serum ELISA measurement of insulin and IL-6 levels. Anova test results of IL-6 levels (p = 0.002). Post-hoc test results of group K- and group P (p = 0.002), group K + and group P (p = 0.037), group K- and group K + (p = 0.437). The Anova test results of insulin levels between groups found a significant difference (p = 0.001). Post-hoc test of insulin levels of group K- and group P (p = 0.002), group K- and group K+ (p = 0.000), and group K+ with group P (p = 0.356). In group K and group P, the results of the ANOVA and post hoc tests on IL-6 levels and insulin levels with the provision of a high-protein diet show significant differences. This study suggests that a high-protein diet may be an effective therapeutic alternative in reducing the symptoms of polycystic ovary syndrome, especially in controlling high insulin and interleukin-6 levels.
