Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a disease with reproductive dysfunction and abnormal endocrine metabolism. It is characterized by hyperandrogenism, insulin resistance (IR) and persistent anovulation. At present, the pathogenesis and pathological mechanism of PCOS are still unclear, and there is no unified standard for the diagnosis and treatment of PCOS locally nor abroad. It is still a famous and difficult problem to explore the pathogenesis of PCOS and seek effective prevention and treatment methods.
