Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) is one of the most common disorders in women of reproductive age.
Symptoms can include obesity, acne, male-pattern hair growth on the body, and male-pattern hairloss on the head. And yet, despite its common occurrence, how it begins is still somewhat poorly understood. With more and more research being performed, it has become clear that PCOS can no longer be viewed as a solely gynaecological disorder, but rather a metabolic one.
