Abstract

Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is a chronic disease that requires long-term adherence to treatment. One of the main challenges in managing type 2 DM is the low level of patient adherence to medication. This literature review aims to analyze the effect of health education on improving patients’ knowledge and medication adherence. The review is based on selected scientific articles that discuss the relationship between education, knowledge, and adherence in patients with DM. Findings indicate that health education-delivered through counseling, printed media, self-instructional modules, or home visits—generally improves patients’ understanding of the disease and the importance of regular treatment. This increase in knowledge contributes to better health behavior, particularly in terms of medication compliance. Interactive educational methods that involve healthcare providers and patient families are more effective than one-way communication approaches. Structured and continuous education tailored to patient characteristics has the potential to significantly enhance disease management. Therefore, health education should be prioritized as a key strategy to improve treatment adherence and prevent long-term complications in patients with diabetes mellitus.

Abstract

Infertility due to ovulatory disorders presents a significant challenge in reproductive health, with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) being one of the leading causes. Metformin has been widely used in clinical practice to manage ovulatory dysfunction in women with PCOS, either as monotherapy or in combination with other therapeutic approaches. This narrative review aims to evaluate the effectiveness of metformin on clinical pregnancy rate (CPR) and live birth rate (LBR) through a critical appraisal of nine scientific publications published in the past ten years. Relevant literature was gathered through the PubMed database using selected keywords and screened based on predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria. Findings indicate that metformin provides beneficial effects on improving CPR, particularly when used as an adjunct therapy prior to IVF protocols or in combination with non-pharmacological approaches such as acupuncture. However, evidence related to LBR demonstrates greater variability. Overall, these findings support the role of metformin as part of an individualized, evidence-based fertility treatment strategy. This review offers important clinical implications for optimizing infertility management in women with PCOS.
