All randomised controlled trials, pre\u2013post and pilot\/feasibility studies until May 2024 meeting the predefined inclusion criteria were included.

Randomised controlled trials (RCTs) conducted in women with general obesity (body mass index\u2009&gt;\u200930\u2005kg\/m\n                      <jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup>\n                      ) consistently found no significant changes in androgens or other key hormones (testosterone, oestrogen, progesterone, luteinising hormone, cortisol, dehydroepiandrosterone and sex hormone-binding globulin). In contrast, non-randomised studies focusing on women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) reported beneficial changes to hormone profiles, including decreased testosterone and luteinising hormone, although these effects may have been confounded by weight loss.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>While limited by six studies, the current evidence on TRE's impact on female hormones is inconclusive and varies significantly by population and study design. While TRE appears to be a hormonally safe weight-loss strategy in women with general obesity, more rigorous, long-term RCTs are needed to establish its therapeutic role, in particular for conditions like PCOS.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1177\/02601060261467643","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,7,10]],"date-time":"2026-07-10T13:07:24Z","timestamp":1783688844000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Impact of time-restricted eating on reproductive hormones and androgen markers in adult females: A systematic review"],"prefix":"10.1177","author":[{"given":"Aimee","family":"Jirapak","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Health, Medicine and Behavioural Sciences, School of Human Movement and Nutrition Sciences, The University of Queensland, Brisbane, QLD, Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Emily","family":"Adams","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Health, Medicine and Behavioural Sciences, School of Human Movement and Nutrition Sciences, The University of Queensland, Brisbane, QLD, Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Georgia M","family":"Black","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Health, Medicine and Behavioural Sciences, School of Human Movement and Nutrition Sciences, The University of Queensland, Brisbane, QLD, Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9317-2351","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Brooke L","family":"Devlin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Health, Medicine and Behavioural Sciences, School of Human Movement and Nutrition Sciences, The University of Queensland, Brisbane, QLD, Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,7,10]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_2_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/jne.12590"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3390\/clockssleep5030034"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.isci.2024.109000"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3390\/nu13082525"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1113\/JP281101"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/s12970-016-0155-6"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3390\/healthcare11101488"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1038\/s41598-018-32647-0"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_10_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.cmet.2023.12.004"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_11_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3390\/nu15102260"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_12_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1155\/2022\/2830545"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_13_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/ijc.30441"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_14_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/oby.23562"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_15_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.14814\/phy2.14868"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_16_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/s12967-021-02817-2"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_17_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1038\/s41430-024-01461-5"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_18_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.cmet.2016.06.001"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_19_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.18773\/austprescr.2023.014"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_20_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s13668-024-00569-1"},{"issue":"12","key":"e_1_3_2_21_1","article-title":"Changed endocrinology in postmenopausal women: A comprehensive view","volume":"15","author":"Motlani V","year":"2023","unstructured":"Motlani V, Motlani G, Pamnani S, et al.
