Abstract: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a set of symptoms due to raised androgens (male hormonal agents) in women. Signs and symptoms of POCS include irregular or no menstrual durations, heavy durations, excess body and facial hair, acne, pelvic pain, trouble getting pregnant, and spots of thick, darker, silky skin. Associated conditions consist of type 2 diabetes, weight problems, obstructive sleep apnea, heart disease, mood disorders, and endometrial cancer. Ovarian disorders that are a specific effect of the hormone milieu of pregnancy such as pregnancy luteoma (PL) and Hyperreactio Luteinalis (HL) are uncommon. Nevertheless, they have essential ramifications for both the mother and the fetus considering that they can be puzzled with ovarian malignancy leading to unneeded surgery. This evaluation concentrates on the significant aspects of management of these ovarian conditions during pregnancy.

Keywords: pregnancy luteoma (PL), Hyperreactio Luteinalis (HL).
