Risk of hypertension in women with polycystic ovary syndrome: a systematic review, meta-analysis and meta-regression.
CONCLUSION: This meta-analysis confirms a greater risk of HTN in PCOS patients but demonstrates that this risk is increased only in reproductive age women with PCOS, indicating that after menopause, having a history of PCOS may not be as an important predisposing factor for developing HTN.
