Skin Disease Related to Metabolic Syndrome in Women

The document reviewed the relationship between skin diseases and metabolic syndrome (MetS) in women, highlighting conditions such as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), psoriasis, hidradenitis suppurativa, and acanthosis nigricans. These conditions were associated with metabolic abnormalities like insulin resistance, dyslipidemia, and obesity. The review emphasized the importance of recognizing dermatologic manifestations as potential indicators of underlying metabolic disorders, suggesting that early identification and management of these skin conditions could help mitigate broader health risks associated with MetS. No human or animal subjects were involved in the study.
