Ovary Syndrome May Increase Risk of Vascular Disease
In the study titled "Early Impairment of Endothelial Structure and Function in Young, Normal-Weight Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS)," study authors evaluated the presence of early vascular damage in young, normal-weight women with PCOS. They found that PCOS impairs women's vascular health, namely endothelial structure and function, regardless of whether the women are otherwise healthy.
