“…Perhaps the earliest text on polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) was described by Antonio Vallisneri as “…Young peasant woman, married, moderately plump, infertile, with ovaries larger than normal, like doves’ eggs, lumpy, shiny and whitish” in 1721 [1]. The inherent variability of PCOS was evident even in the initial Irving Stein and Michael Leventhal description in 1935 in their series of patients showing polycystic ovaries, but with other characteristics exhibited non‐uniformly, including infertility, hirsutism, and oligomenorrhea [2].…”

“…Several investigators have documented increases in uterine and ovarian volume during childhood, with an incremental increase in the number of developing follicles in the years leading up to puberty3, 12, 13. Assessment of ovarian morphology by means of ultrasound is useful to differentiate central precocious puberty from isolated premature thelarche or premature adrenarche14, 15 and is currently used as a substitute for histological examination in the diagnosis of polycystic ovaries (PCO)16. The ultrasound criteria established for diagnosis of PCO are an enlarged ovary and multiple small follicles scattered around an echogenic stroma17, 18.…”
