Brief description Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) affects up to 1 in 5 women. It is associated with a high risk of obesity, infertility, diabetes, and heart disease. We are updating guidelines for PCOS, yet it is not known how to help women and health professionals use these guidelines. This project will involve women with PCOS and health professionals working together to design high quality resources and link these into clinical care to improve the management of PCOS. This will lead to improved health outcomes.
