Overview
Primary Prevention
The National Institue of Child Health and Human Development’s Division of Epidemiology, Statistics, and Prevention Research (DESPR) is exploring early signs of PCOS in teenage girls. Some research suggests that certain signs of PCOS are present at or before puberty. The DESPR research study is examining the relationships among ovarian shape and size, obesity around the waist, and biomarkers of insulin resistance as signs of PCOS in girls who have not yet reached puberty.
Hopefully, ways to prevent PCOS will arise as research on the syndrome continues.
