Epidemiological studies investigating the association of angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) gene insertion/deletion (I/D) polymorphism with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) produced inconsistent results. To derive a more precise estimation of the relationship between I/D polymorphism and PCOS, we conducted the current meta-analysis.
