Abstract: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a complex endocrine reproductive disorder that impacts women who are of reproductive age. Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) was initially defined by Leventhal and Stein in 1935. This disorder can be managed through the use of herbal medication. Numerous herbal medications that aid in the treatment of PCOS are acknowledged in this review study. We looked at the effects of a few herbal medications on PCOS, including fennel, flaxseed, black cumin, cinnamon, liquorice, and Aloe Vera. Additionally, it is thought to increase insulin sensitivity, metabolic profiles, ovulation, fertility, reproductive outcomes, and hormone balance. It also shows antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Variability in dosage regimen, however, emphasizes the necessity of more thorough clinical trials. This article offers a thorough analysis of herbal medications in the treatment of PCOS, educating patients and medical professionals about available phytotherapeutic choices.
