flutamide and Polycystic Ovary Syndrome

flutamide has been researched along with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome in 80 studies

Flutamide: An antiandrogen with about the same potency as cyproterone in rodent and canine species.

Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: A complex disorder characterized by infertility, HIRSUTISM; OBESITY; and various menstrual disturbances such as OLIGOMENORRHEA; AMENORRHEA; ANOVULATION. Polycystic ovary syndrome is usually associated with bilateral enlarged ovaries studded with atretic follicles, not with cysts. The term, polycystic ovary, is misleading.
