Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) - is a polygenic endocrine disorder caused by genetic, hormonal, and epigenetic factors. The importance of addressing PCOS lies in its prevalence, affecting approximately 10 to 13% of women, as well as the associated health conditions that can have a negative impact on women's lives, including infertility, dermatological manifestations of hyperandrogenism (such as hirsutism and acne), cardiovascular pathologies, metabolic disorders, and psychoemotional disorders. Currently, many theories of the development of this disease have been proposed, and as a consequence of methods of influencing and treating it. According to the clinical recommendations of the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation, modifying the patient's lifestyle forms the basis of comprehensive therapy. We have analyzed about 60 articles on various dietary approaches to the treatment of PCOS, sourced from PubMed, Nature Reviews, Oxford Academic, Clinical Nutrition, EJOG, ScienceDirect, and MDPI. The Mediterranean diet, the DASH diet, the ketogenic diet and the low-carb diet have proven themselves the best. Also, it's necessary to add vitamin D, E, folic acid, calcium, various pro- and prebiotics to a woman's diet. Currently, the use of inositol and GPP-1 is becoming a promising method of PCOS therapy. According to the results of the analysis, a positive effect of diet therapy on the anthropometric and biochemical parameters was noted. Based on the analysis, a positive effect of diet therapy on anthropometric and biochemical parameters has been observed. It is crucial to consider the individual characteristics of each patient and not rely solely on drug therapy when approaching the treatment of PCOS.
