OBJECTIVE
Existing data are contradictory on the prevalence of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and metabolic syndrome (MetS) in women with severe obesity (body mass index [BMI] ≥ 35 kg/m2 ), and there are few studies investigating the effect of weight reduction in women with severe obesity and PCOS. The aim was to study the prevalence of PCOS and MetS among women with severe obesity and to evaluate the effect of a 12-months weight loss programme on the prevalence of PCOS and MetS.
