Both general- and central- obesity are causally associated with polycystic ovarian syndrome: Findings of a Mendelian randomization study

2022-02-09

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> <h4>Introduction</h4> Obesity is observed in a majority of women with polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS). Using body mass index (BMI) as a proxy, previous Mendelian randomization studies revealed general obesity potentially causes PCOS. Central obesity frequently demonstrates a stronger association with PCOS, although evidence on its causality is sparse. <h4>Objectives</h4> To investigate causal...
