In this research, a green nanocomposite was meticulously prepared and characterized. Its biological effectiveness was thoroughly evaluated before and after loading it with metformin in female white rats induced with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). The green nanocomposite, derived from fresh, soft asparagus stalks, underwent rigorous preparation and was carefully characterized. The nanocomposite was meticulously created by mixing 20% fresh asparagus plant with 80% silver nitrate solution (AgNO3), and then the treatment was loaded onto it and diagnosed. Rigorous analysis involving Fourier transform infrared diffraction spectroscopy (FT-IR) and Atomic Force Microscope (AFM) images contributed to unveiling significant changes in the nanocomposite surface loaded with the treatment, all within nanoscale sizes and dimensions consistent with the results of the infrared spectrum ..
