The definition of PCOS has been much debated, while its pathophysiology appears to be multifactorial and is still being actively researched. There is no doubt that PCOS has a significant effect on quality of life and psychological morbidity and, as many specialists are involved in its management, a multidisciplinary approach is required. The 59th RCOG Study Group brought together a range of experts who treat women with PCOS. This book presents the findings of the Study Group, including: • a definition of PCOS • the accuracy of diagnostic interventions • the particular challenges of adolescent diagnosis and management • the correlation to ethnicity • current approaches to therapy • the potential individualisation of therapy • the role of the alternative therapies used to manage some aspects of PCOS.Polycystic ovary syndromePolycystic ovary syndrome.618.1/1Balen Adam H.UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910787985103321Current management of polycystic ovary syndrome3808599UNINA
