The Rotterdam diagnostic criteria are widely adopted for PCOS diagnosis among European endocrinologists. The current updated survey shows an emphasis on steroid profiling as an important part of diagnostic workup and a strong position held for recognition of PCOS as a metabolic condition with potentially serious implications. Current therapy thus shifted to the demand for prioritizing lifestyle interventions and metabolic therapies, either as monotherapy or in combination with standard hormone compounds.
