Adverse Long-term Metabolic and Endometrial Consequences in Women with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome: A Report of Two Cases.
CONCLUSION: PCOS may be associated with long-term adverse metabolic and endometrial consequences. Timely diagnosis and appropriate monitoring and management should be emphasized in order to prevent these women from adverse long-term complications. Oral contraceptives in combination with metformin reversed endometrial atypical hyperplasia in the obese, progestin-resistant woman with PCOS. Further clinical studies may be needed to confirm the effectiveness of such treatment on endometrial atypia in obese, progestin-resistant women for fertility sparing.
