Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is an exceptionally common disorder of premenopausal women characterized by hyperandrogenism and chronic anovulation. Its etiology remains unknown. Since the report by Burghen et al. in 1980 that PCOS was associated with hyperinsulinemia, it has become clear that the syndrome has major metabolic as well as reproductive morbidities. Hereafter, the whys and hows associated with insulin resistant PCOS become very labored and complicated, and you will really need to read the whole article (plus many more, probably).
