Despite its high prevalence and its significant impact on both physical and emotional health, no specific pharmacological treatment currently exists for PCOS. In 98% of cases, oral contraceptives are used as the primary therapeutic approach. However, scientific evidence emphasizes that healthy lifestyle is a fundamental pillar in the management of PCOS.
