| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), which is characterized by menstrual disorders, polycystic ovaries, and hyperandrogenic manifestation, is the most common endocrine disorder of reproductive age women. PCOS women have an increased risk for many medical problems, including obesity, lipid abnormalities, insulin resistance and hypertension. Further, a woman with PCOS has a lower health-related quality of life and an increased risk for mental depression and anxiety. The present study investigated mechanisms of PCOS as a complex multifactorial disorder from the perspective of the autonomic nervous system, which ingeniously modulates biological homeostasis and plays a critical part in the integrity of the mind-body connection. The authors also examined the extent to which and the manner in which menstrual irregularity, as a critical factor related to PCOS and infertility, is associated with the autonomic dysfunction together with the psycho-endocrinological factors.
