How should Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) be treated?

Patient's question:

Not pregnant, the hospital check said I have polycystic ovary syndrome. How should polycystic ovary syndrome be treated?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a complex endocrine disorder characterized by the coexistence of reproductive dysfunction and abnormal glucose metabolism. Infertility due to ovulatory dysfunction is the main clinical manifestation of PCOS. The exact etiology of PCOS is not yet fully understood, and it is currently believed that the excessive production of androgens by the ovaries is the result of synergistic actions among multiple endocrine system dysfunctions in the body. In Western medicine, PCOS is typically treated with artificial cycles and ovulation induction, both of which require the oral administration of hormone drugs.
