ABSTRACT Objectives Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a multifaceted heritable endocrine disorder that affects 4%–20% of females worldwide. Characterized by symptoms such as polycystic ovaries, anovulation, and hyperandrogenism, PCOS remains challenging to diagnose, particularly in its early stages. Research suggests women with may experience earlier onset menarche, but the mechanisms behind this association are not well understood. This study explores whether menarche could serve an effective diagnostic marker for PCOS. Materials Methods A survey was conducted 95 adult (ages 19–62), divided into two groups: diagnosed (49%, n = 47) without (51%, 48). Participants self‐identified were required meet Rotterdam Criteria diagnosis. Notably, all participants exhibited hyperandrogenic phenotype. Independent samples t ‐tests linear regression used data analysis. Results Women reached average 1.8 years than those condition (mean age 11.4 ± 1.6 vs. 13.2 1.2 years). Discussion These findings suggest be promising, underexplored indicator PCOS, offering potential new avenue diagnosis condition. valuable, often until more classic symptoms, anovulation or hirsutism, emerge. Further research needed confirm these results investigate underlying mechanisms.

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) presents a significant challenge in women's reproductive health, characterized by disrupted folliculogenesis and ovulatory dysfunction. Central to PCOS pathogenesis are granulosa cells, whose dysfunction contributes aberrant steroid hormone production oxidative stress. Mitochondrial emerges as key player, influencing cellular energetics, stress, steroidogenesis. This study investigates the therapeutic potential of menstrual blood-derived stem cells (MenSCs) their exosomes mitigating mitochondrial stress cells.

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is increasingly being characterized as an evolutionary mismatch disorder that presents with a complex mixture of metabolic and endocrine symptoms. The Evolutionary Model proposes PCOS arises from collection inherited polymorphisms have been consistently demonstrated in variety ethnic groups races. In-utero developmental programming susceptible genomic variants are thought to predispose the offspring develop PCOS. Postnatal exposure lifestyle environmental risk factors results epigenetic activation developmentally programmed genes disturbance hallmarks health. resulting pathophysiological changes represent consequences poor-quality diet, sedentary behaviour, disrupting chemicals, stress, circadian disruption, other factors. Emerging evidence suggests lifestyle-induced gastrointestinal dysbiosis plays central role pathogenesis Lifestyle exposures initiate result microbiome (dysbiosis), immune dysregulation (chronic inflammation), altered metabolism (insulin resistance), reproductive imbalance (hyperandrogenism), nervous system dysfunction (neuroendocrine, autonomic system). can be progressive condition leads obesity, gestational diabetes, type 2 metabolic-associated fatty liver disease, syndrome, cardiovascular cancer. This review explores mechanisms underpin between ancient survival pathways contemporary involved pathophysiology
