Conditions
Brief summary
The aim of the study is to assess the association between the quality of life of patients with PCOS and various factors (age, BMI, socio-professional category, delay in diagnostic of PCOS, infertility, hyperandrogenism, parity, history of anxiety and depression, cycles disorders). This study will be proposed to patients known to have PCOS, during a follow-up consultation or a visit to a day hospital in the Gynaecology Department and/or a consultation in the Reproductive Medicine Department. No-objection forms will be collected at the same time. A link will be sent by e-mail to the patient to access the online questionnaire on the WEPI software and complete it after the consultation. Responses to the questionnaire will be collected progressively and stored in a secure RedCAP file.
