Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common endocrine pathology that affects 814% of women of reproductive age. The leading signs of the disease are hyperandrogenism, ovulatory dysfunction, and polycystic ovarian morphology. Over the past decades, a variety of animal models have been developed to study the etiology and pathogenesis of PCOS, including chemical, hormonal, and genetic interventions. However, a large number of experimental techniques differ even in the framework of a single model. In this review article, we summarized PCOS animal models using both direct hormonal effects and indirect methods.
