Background: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is one of the most common endocrine disorders affecting women of reproductive age. The goal of this study was to present the suitable diet recommended by the international literature for women with polycystic ovary syndrome to alleviate their symptoms. Methods: A systematic search of electronic databases containing medical topics was conducted. Results: A total number of 123 articles were retrieved and seven of them were relevant to our chosen topic concerning the diet-related polycystic ovary syndrome. According to research, it seems that diet plays a very important role on the clinical picture and laboratory findings of PCOS. According to the included studies, the change in the diet of women brought positive results in terms of clinical appearance of the syndrome. Ôhis review presents the type of diet that is deemed helpful in the clinical and laboratory picture of the syndrome. Conclusion: In the future, more research should be conducted on a larger population with PCOS and for a longer period of time, during which subjects would be given a specific diet. It would also be important to compare diet to mild exercise and dietary supplementation.
