Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common gynaecological/endocrine disorder that affects 5%-10% of women of reproductive age. Its association with psychiatric conditions is well known. This study aimed to evaluate personality, temperamental, and stress-related characteristics among PCOS patients by comparing them with a control group. We found that PCOS patients presented more pronounced features of type D personality and had higher NEO Five-Factor Inventory (NEO FFI) scores on neuroticism and lower NEO FFI scores on openness to experience and conscientiousness. On the Polish version of the Emotionality Activity Sociability Temperament Survey (EAS-D), PCOS patients reported higher emotionality-fear and lower activity than controls. The PCOS group also had higher scores on state anxiety and trait anxiety, using the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) and Distressed Personality Scale (DS-14) questionnaires. These findings underline the importance of a multidisciplinary approach to the care of PCOS patients.

Background: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a complex endocrine disorder with various contributing factors. Understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying PCOS is essential for developing effective treatments. This study aimed to identify hub genes and investigate potential molecular mechanisms associated with PCOS through a combination of bioinformatics analysis and Mendelian randomization (MR).

Introduction Insulin resistance is a fundamental factor in the pathogenesis of polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) and has been found to mediate a close association with obesity and dyslipidemia. While the anti-diabetic and anti-inflammatory properties of fenugreek seed extracts have been demonstrated, research on its anti-hyperlipidemic properties is still in its novice stage, with inconclusive evidence. The present study assessed the impact of fenugreek seed extracts rich in furostanolic saponins (Furocyst) on lipid profiles across different categories of body mass index (BMI) in women with PCOS.

Objective: The association between vitamin D deficiency and ovarian reserve-specific outcomes of assisted reproductive technology (ART) remains uncertain. This study aimed to investigate the role of ovarian reserve in the association between basal serum vitamin D levels and ART outcomes in patients undergoing controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH).
Methods: A total of 1,333 infertile women undergoing COH cycles were retrospectively analyzed.

Objective: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is an important factor contributing to infertility in reproductive-aged women. Hyperandrogenism (HA) plays an important role in the pathogenesis of PCOS. This study was conducted to explore the follicular development and endometrial receptivity of different androgen phenotypes in reproductive-aged patients with PCOS.
