| Abstract | ||
| Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) has shown a steady increase in prevalence in most parts of the world. Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) frequently occurs in 15–20% of women in their reproductive age. It is associated with subfertility, ovulatory dysfunction, dysregulated androgen biosynthesis, and increased risk of insulin resistance. This study aims to assess the prevalence, phenotypic distribution, and clinical characteristics of PCOS in a sample of Egyptian women with T1DM. | ||
