Abstract
Low birth weight may influence the appearance of hyperandrogenism and insulin resistance in a portion of adolescents with PCOS, but only 9% of the adolescents with PCOS in this study were SGA. In the majority of adolescents with PCOS, hyperinsulinemia and hyperandrogenism are related to factors other than birth weight alone.
