Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is a complex endocrine disorder affecting 5-20% of women of reproductive age, characterized by symptoms such as hyperandrogenism, chronic anovulation, and polycystic ovarian morphology. The condition is influenced by genetic, lifestyle, and environmental factors, including insulin resistance and hormonal imbalances. Traditional treatments involve herbs like Cinnamomum zeylanicum, while modern medicine uses Clomiphene citrate and Metformin. Additionally, agents like Thiazolidinediones and Inositols are used to manage insulin resistance. Environmental factors, gut dysbiosis, and lifestyle changes also significantly impact PCOS management and outcomes.
