Abstract

 NAFLD (Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease) is emerging as an important cause of chronic liver disease worldwide. It ranges from end-stage liver disease to fatty infiltration. PCOS (Polycystic ovarian syndrome) is one of the most prevalent endocrine abnormalities seen in reproductive-age women, which causes significant morbidity. This article aims to provide the readers with a comprehensive overview of the two disease conditions and insights into the pathophysiology of NAFLD in PCOS with implications for therapeutic research and drug targets.
