ABSTRACT
@#Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS), one of the most common endocrine disorders occurring during reproductive age, is characterized by ovulatory dysfunction, biochemical or clinical hyperandrogenism, and polycystic ovaries.1 Its prevalence ranges from 5% to 10% based on population studies, and largely depends on the diagnostic criteria used, and ethnicity of the population being investigated. PCOS is currently considered a syndrome with metabolic and reproductive consequences that could affect women's health during different stages of reproductive age. There is increasing body of evidence suggesting a negative effect of PCOS on fertility and pregnancy outcomes.
