Abstract

Abstract: Introduction: Adolescence is a period of transition from childhood to adulthood, a time of physiological, psychological, social and emotional adaptation. Nowadays adolescence is being attracted to the current technological world and has a greater impact on their lifestyle in all aspects. So they need more guidance and care. Adolescence is one of the most fascinating and complex transitions in the life span: a time of accelerated growth and change. A time of expanding horizons, self-discovery, emerging independence and a time of metamorphosis from child to adulthood. Specifically, adolescent girls need more consideration in their health because the current gynaecological problems are gradually arising and that stem from the girls passing through their motherhood. Polycystic ovarian syndrome is one the most growing gynaecological and endocrine problems, which is most common among adolescent girls. It adversely affects their life process and leads them to infertility in later life, thus it prevents them from enjoying their motherhood and causes more stress throughout their life.
