About the trial
The purpose of this study is to determine how polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) impacts overall brain health, such as cerebral blood flow (CBF), brain structure and connectivity, and cognitive performance. 45 reproductive aged (18-45 years) individuals with ovaries, with and without PCOS, will be enrolled to complete brain structure and CBF scans via magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) over 2 testing visits and can expect to be on study for approximately 5 hours over a 1 to 3 month period.
