No: Exzema won't prevent you from ovulating or cause PCOS. A mild infection such as a boil won't either. A very severe infection that results in a hospital stay and IV antibiotics could prevent ovulation but won't cause PCOS. The underlying cause of PCOS is insulin resistance in the cells. Higher levels of insulin prevent ovulation and cause PCOS. Best wishes!
