Aim: To analyse clinical et biological pecularities of Polycystics Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) patients enrolled on ICSI cycles and compare them to normo-ovulatory women.
Methods: 100 controlled ovarian stimulation cycles for ICSI in women with PCOS and 200 cycles in normo-ovulatory women.
Results: There was no significant difference in term of cancellation rate (5.5% in PCOS group vs 5%; NS). The mean number of follicles was higher in patients with PCOS (18.1 +/- 8.5 vs 9.4 +/- 5.5; p < 0.05). Oocyte mature rate and fertilization rate were higher in PCOS group (67% vs 52%; p < 0.05) (75% vs 63.7%; p < 0.05) respectively. Grade 1 embryo rate was significantly higher in PCOS group (69% vs 53%; p < 0.05). Implantation rate (16.6% vs 12.1%; NS) and clinical pregnancy rate per transfer (31.5% vs 22.2%; NS) did not differ statistically in the two groups. Miscarriage rate was higher in PCOS group but this did not reach the statistical significance (20% vs 7.1%; NS). 11 cases of Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome occurred in PCOS group versus 4 on normo-ovulatory group.
Conclusion: Use of ICSI as fertilization technique was correlated with good biologic parameters on PCOS patients with better fertilization rate and embryo quality and similar pregnancy rate comparing to normo-ovulatory women. However, it still be great concern about high risk of miscarriages and Hyperstimulation ovarian syndrome.

Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of a microfluidic culture system supplemented with follicular fluid meiosis-activating sterol (FF-MAS) on the maturation of immature oocytes in patients with polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS).
Methods: A total of 438 germinal vesicle oocytes from 163 PCOS patients were included. Oocytes were divided into five groups: (1) cultured in static drops without FF-MAS, (2) cultured in static drops with FF-MAS, (3) cultured in a microfluidic device without FF-MAS, (4) cultured in a microfluidic device with FF-MAS for the first 2 h, and (5) cultured in a microfluidic device with FF-MAS for 24 h.

Objective: Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is a prevalent endocrinopathy in reproductive-aged women, contributing to 75% of infertility cases due to ovulatory dysfunction. The condition poses significant health and psychological challenges, making the study of its pathogenesis and treatment a research priority. This study investigates the effects of Mogroside V (MV) on PCOS, focusing on its anti-inflammatory and anti-insulin resistance properties.

Objective: To investigate the association between Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) and the rate of embryo development, using time-lapse monitoring systems (TLM), compared to a control group of women with mechanical (tubal) factor infertility.
Design: A retrospective case-control study conducted in a university affiliated IVF unit.
Patients: Women with PCOS undergoing in-vitro fertilization (IVF) treatments and those with non-PCOS controls with tubal factor infertility only.

Objective: This study aimed to compare clinicopathological characteristics and oncological outcomes in patients with endometrial cancer aged ≤45 and >45 years, with a focus on identifying distinct traits and prognostic factors in younger patients.
Design: A retrospective cohort study.
Setting: The study was conducted at King Chulalongkorn Memorial Hospital, Bangkok, Thailand, with a restricted study population from 1996 to 2016.
Purpose: To gather the current opinion among Italian gynecologists and endocrinologists regarding the definition, diagnosis, and treatment of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).
Method: A Delphi survey consisting of 26 statements was designed by a nine-member panel (consisting of members from the Italian Society of Endocrinology (SIE) and the Experts Group AQon Inositol in Basic and Clinical Research and on PCOS (EGOI-PCOS)) and distributed to 102 experts in PCOS across the fields of gynecology and endocrinology. Consensus was defined as an agreement between at least 70% of responders.
