Answer:

1. Insulin resistance and diabetes

2. Metformin

Explanation:

Metformin can be used to treat polycystic ovary syndrome, especially for insulin-resistant women (insulin is a hormone that transports sugar into cells).

People with insulin resistance have high levels of this hormone in their blood and excess circulating insulin can aggravate manifestations of polycystic ovary syndrome, and also increase the risk of diabetes.

The main benefits of metformin in the treatment of polycystic ovaries is the normalization of menstrual irregularity and the restoration of ovulatory cycles.

Since most women with polycystic ovary syndrome are insulin resistant, metformin is a good treatment option in some cases.

However, the treatment of polycystic ovary syndrome should be individualized for each woman, depending on the symptoms presented and the goal to be achieved with the treatment.

Distinguish among eons, eras, periods, and epochs, using specific examples.
andrew11 [14]

In a particular context, “epoch” can refer to a particular point of time characterized by a particular event/series of events.

While “era” refers to a period of time characterized by events in a chronological order.

Thus, an “era” can encompass more than one “epoch”.

“Period” can refer to a short interval of time or a very long interval of time.
For example:

<span>“My period of happiness….”“The period of Four Horsemen…”</span>

<span>“Eon” </span>refers to an indefinitely long time. <span>Eon is presumed to consist of at least 2 eras.</span>
