How does clomiphene work in polycystic ovaries?

Polycystic ovaries lead to the clinical picture of polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCO). This is a hormonal disorder in women that leads to an increased concentration of male sex hormones in the blood. This delays the maturation of the follicles and makes it more difficult for women to become pregnant. Ovarian stimulation therapy with clomiphene leads to the maturation of follicles in the ovaries and increases the fertility of the affected women.
