ChatGPT’s Efficacy in Queries Regarding Polycystic Ovary Syndrome and Treatment Strategies for Women Experiencing Infertility

Abstract

This study assesses the efficacy of ChatGPT-4, an advanced artificial intelligence (AI) language model, in delivering precise and comprehensive answers to inquiries regarding managing polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS)-related infertility. The research team, comprising experienced gynecologists, formulated 460 structured queries encompassing a wide range of common and intricate PCOS scenarios. The queries were: true/false (170), open-ended (165), and multiple-choice (125) and further classified as ‘easy’, ‘moderate’, and ‘hard’. For true/false questions, ChatGPT-4 achieved a flawless accuracy rate of 100% initially and upon reassessment after 30 days. In the open-ended category, there was a noteworthy enhancement in accuracy, with scores increasing from 5.53 ± 0.89 initially to 5.88 ± 0.43 at the 30-day mark (p < 0.001). Completeness scores for open-ended queries also experienced a significant improvement, rising from 2.35 ± 0.58 to 2.92 ± 0.29 (p < 0.001). In the multiple-choice category, although the accuracy score exhibited a minor decline from 5.96 ± 0.44 to 5.92 ± 0.63 after 30 days (p > 0.05). Completeness scores for multiple-choice questions remained consistent, with initial and 30-day means of 2.98 ± 0.18 and 2.97 ± 0.25, respectively (p > 0.05). ChatGPT-4 demonstrated exceptional performance in true/false queries and significantly improved handling of open-ended questions during the 30 days. These findings emphasize the potential of AI, particularly ChatGPT-4, in enhancing decision-making support for healthcare professionals managing PCOS-related infertility.
