Abstract
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a prevalent reproductive-metabolic disorder with poorly understood etiology. Mimouni et al. (2021) demonstrate global genomic DNA hypomethylation in women with PCOS and their daughters, and in F3 generation PCOS-like mice, together with substantial normalization of PCOS-like mice by methyl donor dietary supplementation.
