Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- The comparison of the gut microbiota composition [before and after 2, 8, 12 weeks of intervention]
Determination the gut microbiota composition change of stool samples between placebo group and intervention group by 16S metagenomic.
- The alterations of gut metabolites [before and after 2, 8, 12 weeks of intervention]
Determination the alterations of gut metabolites before and after NMN intervention by metabolomics.
- Blood sugar level [before and after 2, 8, 12 weeks of intervention]
Changes in plasma glucose concentration after the intervention.
- Fasting insulin [before and after 2, 8, 12 weeks of intervention]
Changes in plasma insulin concentration after the intervention.
- Endocrine hormones including AMH [before and after 3 months of intervention]
Changes in endocrine hormones including AMH levels in serum after the intervention.
- Ovarian volume [before and after 3 months of intervention]
The size of each ovary will be determined using transvaginal ultrasonography for each participant in early follicular phase.
- Follicle number [before and after 3 months of intervention]
The number of all antral follicles in each ovary will be determined using transvaginal ultrasonography for each participant.
- Blood NAD+ level [before and after 2, 8, 12 weeks of intervention]
Changes in whole blood NAD+ level after the intervention.
- Changes in NAD-related metabolites in urine [before and after 2, 8, 12 weeks of intervention]
Determination the changes of NAD-related metabolites in urine before and after NMN intervention by metabolomics.
