To explore the relationship between serum ferritin levels and insulin resistance in women diagnosed with PCOS.
Conducted a cross-sectional study in women aged 16–40 with PCOS using Rotterdam criteria
Measured serum ferritin, fasting insulin, and glucose to calculate HOMA-IR
Performed demographic, clinical, and biochemical evaluations
Analyzed correlations between serum ferritin, insulin resistance, and metabolic parameters
Mean serum ferritin level was 52.02 ± 31.22 ng/mL; mean HOMA-IR was 3.25 ± 1.87
A strong positive correlation (r = 0.74, p < 0.0001) was found between serum ferritin and insulin resistance
Elevated ferritin levels indicate significant metabolic associations independent of other factors
