Polycystic ovary syndrome, or PCOS, is a common endocrine disorder characterized by elevated levels of male sex hormones, known as androgens, in females. In addition to irregular menstrual cycles, enlarged or cyst-filled ovaries, increased body hair, and acne, patients with PCOS might have problems with fertility and metabolic issues, such as insulin resistance. Current treatment options like birth control pills and metformin tend to target only specific symptoms of the condition.
