Relevance: Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is a widespread endocrine disorder that affects millions of women worldwide. This comprehensive review explores new treatments for PCOS, with a particular focus on physical methods, herbal approaches, holistic therapies, medical procedures, bacteriotherapy, and dietary supplements. The study aimed to evaluate modern methods of treating polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), focusing on their effectiveness, safety, and prospects for clinical use. Materials and Methods: A systematic literature search was conducted in reputable databases among sources published up to 2023. The search identified 33 articles that met the inclusion criteria, covering animal and human studies on PCOS and innovative treatments. The main focus of the assessment was on effectiveness and safety. The articles were divided into six groups: holistic therapy, phytotherapy, physical therapies, medical procedures, bacteriotherapy, and dietary supplements. The Cochrane risk of bias tool was used to assess the quality of randomized controlled trials, and the AMSTAR 2 tool was used to analyze the quality of systematic reviews. Results: The review presents various interventions, from acupuncture, yoga, and herbal remedies to high-intensity ultrasound, ultrasound cavitation, probiotics, fecal microbiota transplantation, and dietary supplements. Notably, taking dietary supplements was associated with a positive effect on insulin resistance and androgen levels. The complexity of PCOS treatment highlights the need to develop strategies based on evidence-based medicine. Conclusion: Although noninvasive and natural treatments look promising, thorough research is needed to assess their long-term safety and optimal clinical use. The integration of lifestyle changes, traditional methods, and innovative approaches can form the basis for comprehensive and effective PCOS treatment, giving hope to millions of women around the world. Due to the emergence of alternative treatment methods, caution should be exercised. It is still strongly recommended to consult with medical professionals to make informed decisions about PCOS therapy.
