Abstract
Summary: COVID-19 has been associated with factors such as inflammation, obesity, low vitamin D levels, and hyperandrogenism. These factors are also directly related to Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). We hypothesize that concurrent COVID-19 and high dose vitamin D supplement will decrease the inflammation, and can increase the chances of fertility in these women.
Key words: Polycystic ovary syndrome; COVID-19; SARS-CoV-2; Vitamin D; Inflammation; Infertility
