Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is known as a common gynaecologic
and endocrinology disease with multiple short and long-term
consequences. It is one of the most common causes for
hyperandrogenism and anovulation (therefore hirsutism, acne,
menstrual dysfunction and infertility); increases the risk for
metabolic syndrome, Type 2 diabetes and, still debated,
cardiovascular disease. It represents a substantial psychological,
social and economic burden for womens reproductive life span. In
this book, Chapter One reviews the aetiology and pathogenesis of
the Polycystic Ovary Syndrome, with the objective to set the ground
for future research that could help elucidate which patients have
risk of developing the disorder and what triggers this risk, so
strategies to prevent it could be found. Chapter Two focuses on the
most recent studies about PCOS and the current models of its
genetic pathogenesis. In addition, it emphasizes the significance
of genetic factors and the possibility of developing plausible
candidate gene families for diagnosis and to improve therapeutic
approaches for PCOS treatment. Chapter Three evaluates the
available therapeutic strategies for the treatment of women with
PCOS also focusing on diet in order to assess the possible impact
on the clinical effects associated with it. Chapter Four reviews
the most recent data regarding useful and promising adjuvant
therapies in PCOS and its mechanisms of action, in order to expand
its use on those patients who do not respond to conventional
management. Chapter Five focuses on current existing markers of
Insulin resistance (IR).
