The occurrence of PCOS may be attributed to the interplaying among the genetic and/or metabolic matters of females, as well as the inner and outside environmental factors. Recently, evidence indicates that PCOS occurrence is positively related to a homeostasis abnormity in the gut microbiota, by which metabolites of the gut microbiota, including bile acids and short-chain fatty acids, are involved in the pathogenesis of PCOS. In addition, gut microbiota can affect the occurrence and development of PCOS in female patients with various complications, accompanied by hyperandrogenism (HA), insulin resistance (IR), chronic inflammation, and obesity. In addition, in this review, we also summarize the research progress on rebalancing the gut microbiota of PCOS patients with gut microbiota, such as fecal microbiota transplantation, supplementation of probiotics, prebiotic strategies, and traditional Chinese medicine.
