Each of them plays an important role in various processes in the human body. There are over 60 minerals in varying amounts in human cells. In particular, minerals can be associated with ovulation, metabolism, and hormone management. There is ample evidence that minerals are important for female reproductive function. Recently, scientists have been increasingly paying attention to factors causing pituitary dysfunction, namely inflammatory processes of the body against the background of increased oxidative stress, lifestyle, diet, etc., which play a fundamental role in PCOS-related diseases and the accompanying metabolic syndromes. PCOS is responsible for approximately 70% of cases of anovulatory infertility. The syndrome was first defined by Stein and Leventhal in 1935 and is now one of the most common endocrine diseases, with clinical symptoms such as hyperandrogenism, menstrual disorders, infertility, and hirsutism. Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a disease that, according to various researchers, occurs in 10–21% of women of childbearing age. Further studies are needed to better understand dependencies. Some micronutrient deficiencies may have a negative effect on the lipid profile in PCOS patients (Ni, Na). Blood samples from PCOS and control women were collected, processed, and digested with a microwave system in women with PCOS with and without insulin resistance and in the control group. The concentrations of minerals were determined using an inductively coupled atomic plasma-emission spectrometer (ICP-AES Jobin Yvon JY-24). The aim of the study was to check whether selected minerals were related to the pathophysiological mechanisms of PCOS.
It is characterized by excessive androgen production, ovulation disorders, and developing metabolic syndrome. Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common disease in women of childbearing age.
