ABSTRACT
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a prevalent endocrinological disorder affecting women of reproductive age, characterized by hormonal imbalances leading to metabolic and reproductive dysregulations. Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) represents a critical cardiovascular event, traditionally observed in older populations but increasingly identified in younger individuals with diverse medical backgrounds. The pursuit of assisted reproductive technology (ART) by women with PCOS to address infertility may further complicate cardiovascular risks due to the exogenous hormonal manipulations involved. This case report delineates a rare presentation of AMI in a 27-year-old vicenarian woman with PCOS undergoing ART treatment. Despite the absence of conventional cardiovascular risk factors, the patient exhibited typical symptoms and diagnostic features of AMI. Prompt recognition and intervention facilitated successful management and favorable outcomes. This case underscores the importance of considering atypical cardiovascular presentations in young women with complex medical histories, necessitating heightened awareness among healthcare providers. Multidisciplinary collaboration is imperative for comprehensive risk assessment, prevention, and tailored management strategies in this population. Further research is warranted to elucidate the intricate interplay between PCOS, ART, and cardiovascular outcomes, thereby optimizing clinical care and enhancing reproductive outcomes in this vulnerable cohort. An enhanced understanding of these relationships is essential for guiding evidence-based interventions aimed at mitigating cardiovascular risks and improving overall health outcomes in women with PCOS undergoing fertility treatments.
