Research Programmes

My research program mainly focuses on health of women from reproductive age to post menopause. Pregnancy and its complications are known to increase the risk for metabolic and neuropsychiatric disorders in later life. Further, polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is a menstrual disorder and is associated with hormonal and metabolic disturbances. Women exposed to Invitro fertilization (IVF) also are at high risk for metabolic disorders.
