多囊卵巢综合征是一种慢性内分泌紊乱，伴有持续的身体症状以及心理和生活方式的影响。89名参与者（女性83名，非二元6名），年龄19-43岁，通过绘画和个人叙述描述了他们的多囊卵巢综合征经历。确定了四个描述性主题：对可见和不可见症状的认识、畸形的自我和身体、限制和障碍以及顺从。总的来说，参与者描述了一种具有全方位影响的情况：远远超过单独的症状管理。研究结果支持在该人群中使用绘图作为一种合适的方法，并建议多囊卵巢综合征患者继续需要支持。
Polycystic ovary syndrome is a chronic endocrine disorder associated with persistent physical symptoms and psychological and lifestyle repercussions. Eighty-nine participants (83 females, 6 non-binary) aged 19–43 years described their experiences of polycystic ovary syndrome through drawings and personal accounts. Four descriptive themes were identified: awareness of visible and invisible symptoms, misshapen self and body, limitations and barriers and resignation. Taken together, participants described a condition with all-encompassing effects: much more than symptom management alone. Findings support the use of drawings as an appropriate method with this population and suggest continuing need for supports for individuals with polycystic ovary syndrome.
