Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) is the most common endocrine disorder affecting young women. This condition is associated with infertility, absent or irregular menstrual cycle and increased activity of testosterone (“male hormone”). Most women with PCOS have also other hormonal and metabolic problems such as elevated level of insulin and cholesterol. In the long term, women with this condition are at increased risk of cardiovascular diseases and diabetes. Our center offers extensive state-of-the-art testing and treatments of PCOS. We are also developing new therapies designed to treat symptoms and to protect from long-term consequences of this disorder.
