A study has found that intermittent fasting may have a positive effect on female hormones in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). However, the impact of intermittent fasting on women with PCOS is not entirely clear, with some reports suggesting it may not be as beneficial as previously thought. Research on the topic is ongoing, with various studies exploring the effects of different dietary approaches on hormonal regulation and metabolic health in women with PCOS.
