摘要
New diagnostic criteria for polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) suggested three main phenotypes: classic: (hyperandrogenism and anovulation), ovulatory, and normoandrogenic. However, it is unclear whether the normoandragenic phenotype actually represents :PCOS: Overall, 6% to 8% of reproductive-aged women suffer, from PCOS, making this disorder one of the most common endocrine abnormalities.
