Zusammenfassung

Das polyzystische Ovarsyndrom (PCOS) ist eine häufige endokrine Erkrankung und betrifft Frauen im gebärfähigen Alter. Das klinische Bild ist von Zyklusstörungen, Infertilität und Hyperandrogenismus geprägt. Es besteht ein erhöhtes Risiko für die Entwicklung eines Typ-2-Diabetes. Die Mehrzahl der Frauen mit einem PCOS ist übergewichtig und weist eine Insulinresistenz auf, welche die wesentliche Ursache für das ungünstige kardiovaskuläre Risikoprofil und das gehäufte Auftreten eines metabolischen Syndroms ist.
