Abstract

Background. Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) affects the metabolic, endocrine, and reproductive systems of the body as well as mental health. This review aims to evaluate the impact of anxiety and depression in PCOS patients

Methodology: A systematic search of the MEDLINE database was conducted to identify studies of impact of anxiety and depression on PCOS patients.

Results: According to study findings, PCOS is a complex condition that reduces quality of life and mental health of patients. When compared to the healthy control group mental health is three times reduced in PCOS patients. Consequently, psychological counselling and medicine should be used in the treatment of PCOS in women. Women should be educated about benefit of life style modification in PCOS patients.
