Patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) with normal body weight have a different body composition: 40 % — normal percentage of fat and muscle tissue, 34 % — increased body fat, 26 % — higher content of muscle tissue. For PCOS patients with a high content of fat tissue are most common metabolic disorders: increased body mass index and the ratio of waist / hips; a direct correlation between the amount of adipose tissue with indicators of insulin secretion and HOMA index. For PCOS patients with increased muscle tissue most characteristic manifestations of hyperandrogenism. It was recommended in clinical practice for the treatment of patients with PCOS, in addition to the definition of body mass index implement methods of objective evaluation of the content of fat and muscle tissue
