Abstract:
The precise etiology of the biochemical changes and the resulting constellation of symptoms seen in polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) has remained a mystery. Despite advances in our knowledge, the pathogenesis and alterations in the biochemical pathways underlying this disease are still not fully understood. PCOS is a multifactorial syndrome where a combination of genetics, lifestyle, and hormone abnormalities all play an intertwining role. This article will provide an in-depth look at the multitude of biochemical pathways that are dysregulated in PCOS and their relation to alterations in female physiology.
