Abstract

Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is typical disease characterized through irregular
menstruation as well as the biochemical or clinical signs of an overabundance of testosterone . A
person may experience PCOS symptoms at any age. These include early puberty in infancy, hirsutism
and irregular menstruation in adolescence, infertility and glucose intolerance in middle age and later
in life (heart disease and diabetes mellitus). Although a pelvic ultrasound examination is helpful,
polycystic ovaries are a typical condition in females with PCOS, so ultrasound evidence is required
regarding the diagnosis. It is advisable to test for hyperlipidemia and glucose intolerance, particularly
in obese women, as PCOS is frequently associated with diabetes mellitus. The addition of insulinsensitizing medications, such as metformin, may be helpful in situations like anovulatory infertility.
Lifestyle modifications as advised for diabetes are essential for treatment. While clomiphene citrate
with or without metformin, ovarian drilling, gonadotrophin-induced ovulation induction, and diet and
exercise can all help most women manage their infertility, in vitro fertilization should be avoided. .
