Reply: Polycystic ovary syndromeand pregnancy

Sir, We thank Dr Galazis for his interest in our review (Palomba et al., 2015) and for the issues raised about the increased risk of pregnancy complications in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Our comprehensive review demonstrated that women with PCOS have a 2-fold increased risk of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and a 3–4-fold increased risk of pregnancy-induced hypertension (PIH) and preeclampsia (PE) when compared with non-PCOS controls (Palomba et al., 2015).
