LIMITATIONS :
Limitations of this study is that it may not be representative of the
Malaysian population as participants were recruited from one centre only
as such populations were limited to single center. Bigger study can be
done including other centers to further investigate the strength of this
questionnaire as well as study the effect of PCOS on different
population, example in the indigenous group or in adolescent group.
Future study can expand the domains of Mal-PCOSQ by adding acne question
which was proven to be significantly affected in the Chinese
population[2].
CONCLUSION:Mal-PCOSQ is reliable and valid instrument that can be potentially used
to assess the effect of PCOS on quality of life as well as to assess the
efficacy of treatment in follow ups consultations.
