Women with irregular periods and/or excessive body hair are more likely to have polycystic ovaries, and this condition is linked to higher health risks.

Polycystic ovarian shape is a genetic sign of PCOS and its hormonal and metabolic features can be inherited.

PCOS affects women's health by increasing the risk of diabetes, heart disease, and reproductive issues.

Women with PCOS have fewer activated T cells in their ovarian follicles, which might affect fertility.

Polycystic Ovary Syndrome is linked to higher risk of hypertension and heart disease.

The current methods for diagnosing polycystic ovary syndrome are too vague and may lead to misdiagnosis and problems in research.

SHBG may be a useful early indicator and treatment target for PCOS.

Doctors should know how to diagnose and treat PCOS, which often involves checking for high male hormone levels and using medications to manage symptoms.

The document concludes that managing PCOS effectively requires considering ethnic differences, obesity's impact, and ethical concerns in treatment approaches.

Higher androstenedione levels in women with PCOS are linked to more severe symptoms.

Ovarian SAHA syndrome makes women with PCOS more resistant to insulin and increases their risk of blood sugar problems.
