Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) involves abnormalities in ovarian, reproductive, and metabolic systems. Genetic polymorphisms associated with individual differences and variations might be related to complex disorders with unknown causes, including PCOS. Several leading genetic markers with known cellular functions have been identified among Iranian women presenting with PCOS. In particular, the existing evidence shows a significant relationship between PCOS and the following genetic polymorphisms: rs2275913 (interleukin‐17A), rs9927163 (interleukin‐32), Pro12Ala (peroxisome proliferator‐activated receptor‐γ), rs17173608 (chemerin), rs2236242 (vaspin), ApaI (vitamin D receptor), and rs7895833 (sirtuin 1). In addition, a higher risk of PCOS is associated with the rs2910164 (microRNA 146a), rs2241766 (adiponectin), –34T/C (cytochrome 17), and rs1800682 (Fas) polymorphisms. Furthermore, protective effects against PCOS have been reported for the A4223C polymorphism of adenosine deaminase 1. Overall, the available data indicate that Iranian women with PCOS have a higher prevalence of polymorphisms in inflammation‐ and metabolism‐related genes, but not in insulin‐related genes. More extensive studies are needed to identify the ethnicity‐related genetic associations in PCOS.
