Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is the most common endocrine disorder among women of reproductive age, affecting up to 15–20% of this population. Although it has been extensively studied, its pathophysiological mechanisms remain only partially understood, particularly regarding the metabolic disturbances associated with it. Insulin resistance, present in nearly 75% of affected women, is a central factor in PCOS and its metabolic complications (metabolic syndrome, diabetes, fatty liver disease).
