Review on Diagnostic and Managerial Consequences of PCOS Among Females

Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) diagnosis has evolved over time, with the Rotterdam criteria from 2003 being one of the most effective. Despite various diagnostic criteria, only 25% of females are satisfied with their diagnosis. Personalized management is crucial, involving lifestyle modifications, dietary control, and possibly surgical therapy. A diet with moderate carbohydrates and fats, along with reduced protein, can help manage hormonal issues and co-morbidities. Treatments include oral contraceptives, anti-diabetic medications like metformin, and cosmetic hair removal. Monitoring genotypes and medicinal proposals may also provide medical benefits.
