Beyond ovarian Morphology: Integrative stress profiling for distinguishing polycystic ovary syndrome from functional hypothalamic amenorrhea
This study highlights the significant overlap between PCOS and FHA phenotypes in women with PCOM and emphasizes the utility of psychological assessments, physical activity metrics, and leptin levels in differential diagnosis. Integrating these diagnostic tools into clinical practice may enhance personalized management strategies for OA-PCOM women, addressing both hormonal and stress-related dimensions.
