Changes in the global burden of polycystic ovary syndrome from 1990 to 2021
Our findings highlight the growing global impact of PCOS and underscore the need for concerted efforts to attenuate the increasing global prevalence of this condition. Significantly divergent PCOS disease burdens were observed across different age groups and SDI regions, with high SDI regions bearing heavier burdens. The increased disease burden among younger age groups and regional disparities underscore urgency for targeted intervention and formulation of policies to effectively address this public health issue.
