The Polycystic Ovary Syndrome

چکیده
In the polycystic ovary syndrome, women may suffer from a variety of symptoms and also have a variety of different physical signs, all of which can be due to a number of different causes. It is therefore important not to regard the polycystic ovary syndrome as a diagnosis or disease in itself but, instead, as the start of a search to find the underlying cause of the symptoms and problems. Treatment of the cause of a particular woman’s PCOS will generally give her better results, both in the short term and in the longer term, than a one-size-fits-all treatment.
