Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Center
Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is a common hormonal disorder among women of reproductive age that can interfere with ovulation and affect a women’s ability to become pregnant. In all, an estimated seven to eight percent of women age 15 to 45 (five to seven million women) suffer with the effects of this condition in the United States alone.
Latest Findings to Help Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Achieve Pregnancy
"With this study, my colleagues and I recommend and support the use of clomiphene alone and not in combination with metformin as a first-line therapy for infertility in women with PCOS," said Christos Coutifaris, MD, PhD, Director of the Division of Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility and the principal investigator from Penn.
