Q: what is the ideal weight to overcome polycystic ovaries?

BMI < 25: There is no ideal weight. Every woman has an internal set point and above that the pcos is more out of control. Keeping the bmi between 22-25 is ideal for most women. Regardless of weight, and bmi, healthy diet and exercise are very important.
