Understanding Eating Habits in Females With and Without PCOS

Polycystic Ovary Syndrome | Mental Health | Eating Disorder | PCOS | Women's Health

We would like to compare eating habits and patterns of females with and without Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS).

PCOS is a hormonal disorder that impacts about 10% of females and is associated with eating disorders, mental illness, and diabetes.

Our overarching goal is to improve the knowledge of health care professionals and patients with PCOS, and improve the health care system to screen and treat disordered eating.
