Diagnostic criteria for polycystic ovary syndrome in Taiwanese Chinese women: comparison between Rotterdam 2003 and NIH 1990.
Roughly 61% of patients diagnosed with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) using the 2003 Rotterdam criteria fulfilled the 1990 National Institutes of Health (NIH) criteria. Patients meeting the 1990 NIH diagnostic criteria have more severe clinical and biochemical PCOS symptoms than those who did not.
