Abstract

PCOS, also known as Stein-Leventhal syndrome, is a common endocrine disease characterized by two of the following three characteristics: Once the associated endocrinological and gynecological diseases have been ruled out, oligo-ovulation or anovulation, ii) clinical and/or biochemical indications of hyperandrogenism, or iii) polycystic ovaries should be considered. Cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors are common in women with polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS). The Androgen Excess and Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (AE-PCOS) Society established a panel to offer evidence-based evaluations of research examining the PCOS-CVD risk connection and to produce CVD prevention recommendations. The main pathophysiological abnormality in polycystic ovarian syndrome is a source of much debate (PCOS). Chronic anovulation in conjunction with androgen excess, hyperinsulinemia, and changes in gonadotropin production are now widely accepted as symptoms of this disease in women. Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is linked to obesity and low-grade inflammation, and it may raise the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). This study examines the assessment of cardiovascular disease risk in women with PCOS.
