Nutritional and Metabolic Correlates of Ovarian Morphology in Women With Polycystic Ovary Syndrome

Completed

Conditions studied: Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS), Menstrual Irregularity

In brief

The investigators would like to determine how aspects of metabolism and age influence ovarian function. The purpose of the study is to understand how nutrition and metabolism relate to follicle development in women with regular cycles, irregular cycles, or polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). We also plan to identify lifestyle factors associated with PCOS and understand how diet and activity levels impact features of PCOS.
