Hispanic/Latino females with PCOS had higher odds of MetS, IFG, and elevated TGL, than their peers without PCOS. Interaction analyses revealed that the odds of MetS are higher among PCOS females who have pre-menopausal status or high inflammation. Interventions in Hispanic/Latinas should target these outcomes for effective management of the disease.
