About Us

Who We Are

The Asian PCOS Society is a multidisciplinary organization dedicated to improving the understanding, management, and care of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) across Asia. Through collaboration with experts, researchers, and healthcare professionals, we aim to provide tailored solutions for diverse populations while empowering women to lead healthier lives. Our purpose is to contribute to the improvement of the health of women with PCOS by developing clinic practice and research on PCOS in Asia.

Background of Establishment

The Asian PCOS Society (APS) was established with a mission to enhance the health and well-being of women affected by Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) across Asia. Recognizing the unique ethnic and geographic variations in the phenotype and pathophysiology of PCOS, the founding members aimed to create a dedicated platform for research, education, and clinical practice tailored specifically for Asian women.

The initiative was formally launched during the 76th JSOG meeting in April 2024, where leading experts in the field, including Prof. Budi Wiweko, Mei-Jou Chen, and Rishma Dhillon Pai, convened to discuss the pressing need for a collaborative approach to PCOS management in Asia. The discussions highlighted the importance of developing diagnostic criteria and treatment protocols that are culturally and physiologically relevant to Asian populations, rather than relying solely on research conducted in Caucasian cohorts.
