Healthline: ".1. Does PCOS cause weight gain, or does weight gain cause PCOS?
It’s kind of like asking, 'which came first, the chicken or the egg?'—since it’s not totally clear-cut, it seems most likely that PCOS is the starting point." AND SO ON
INCIID PCOS FAQ:
"Does PCOS cause obesity, or does obesity cause PCOS?
In some ways, this question is akin to asking, 'Which came first, the chicken or the egg?' since it isn't completely understood, but it appears more likely that PCOS comes first." etc
Healthline:
"9.2. Is it possible to be thin and have PCOS?
About half of women with PCOS are overweight, which means that the other half is not."
INCIID PCOS FAQ:
"Is it possible to be lean and have PCOS?

Healthline: "Prepared by: Vesna"
