Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome Market Research Report, By Diagnosis (Pelvic Examination, Ultrasound, Blood Tests), Treatment (Oral Contraceptives, Antiandrogens), End-User (Hospitals & Clinics, Ambulatory Surgical Centers) – Global Forecast Till 2030

Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome Market Overview The Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome Market is anticipated to reach USD 3468.54 Million by 2030 at 4.80% CAGR during the forecast period 2022-2030. Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is a medical illness that causes hormonal imbalances in women of reproductive age. This is caused by a rise in male hormone levels in the body, resulting in an irregular menstrual cycle. Symptoms include an irregular menstrual cycle, increased facial hair growth, acne, thinning or hair loss on the scalp, weight gain, skin discoloration, and more. High levels of androgens, excess insulin, low-grade inflammation, ovarian cysts, and genetic abnormalities all contribute to Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS). PCOS is a hormonal endocrine condition that primarily affects women of reproductive age (15 to 49 years). PCOS is the most prevalent cause of female infertility, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). The rising prevalence of PCOS and the lack of tailored PCOS treatments on the market necessitate the development of new treatment options. Because of the increased prevalence of polycystic ovarian syndrome, the market for the polycystic ovarian syndrome is predicted to rise rapidly. Other significant reasons contributing to market expansion include rising obesity among women, rising diabetes prevalence, rising hormonal disorders in women, change in sedentary lifestyle, socioeconomic factors, rising consumption of poor diet, and others. Another condition that contributes to the development of polycystic ovarian syndrome is diabetes.

Other factors such as increasing healthcare expenditure, increasing technological advancements, and adoption of minimally invasive surgeries drive the market growth in this region.

It is estimated that Europe was the second largest in the polycystic ovarian syndrome market owing to the increasing prevalence of diabetes, obesity, and increasing research activities in the health industry in this region. According to the German Federal Ministry of Health in 2014 and 2015, 7.0% of women of age 18 and more suffered from diabetes in Germany. Thus, the increasing prevalence of diabetes in this region influences the growth of this market in this region.
