TLDR No significant vocal differences were found in people with PCOS compared to others.
This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to evaluate vocal alterations in individuals with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS), their correlation with hyperandrogenism, quality of life, and changes post-therapy.
