Abstract: Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is a multifaceted hormonal disorder characterized by various symptoms, including the presence of ovarian cysts, irregular ovulation, and hormonal imbalances in women. Global prevalence of PCOS, as estimated by the World Health Organization (WHO), is over 116 million women, accounting for approximately 3.4% of the female population. The development of PCOS is influenced by multiple risk factors, like genetics, abnormalities in neuroendocrine system, lifestyle, environmental factors, and obesity. These factors contribute to the initiation and progression of PCOS. The underlying mechanisms of PCOS primarily involve the disturbances in hormone regulation, insulin resistance, and elevated androgen levels, which disrupts the normal process of follicle development and increase the risk of associated conditions like endometrial cancer and type II diabetes. This review provides a concise summary of the risk factors, pathophysiology and homoeopathic approaches in managing menstrual irregularities, infertility and clinical symptoms associated with PCOS.
