Abstract

Polycystic ovary syndrome is one the most common endocrine disorders among reproductive-age females. A wide range of psychiatric disorders and psychological issues are associated with PCOS, which have a biopsychosocial etiology and cause significant impairment in personal and social functioning. The symptoms of PCOS itself immensely affect femininity, resulting in negative psychological impact. Assessment and management of the psychological wellbeing is an essential component to improve the overall health of patients with PCOS. Screening for common disorders to arrange early intervention is recommended.
