TABLE 1.

Categories of recommendations in the PCOS guideline.

EBR Evidence-based recommendations are made where evidence is sufficient to inform a recommendation made by the guideline development group.
CCR Clinical consensus recommendations are made in the absence of adequate evidence on PCOS. These are informed by evidence in other populations and are made by the guideline development group, using rigorous and transparent processes.
CPP Clinical practice points are made where evidence was not sought and are made where important clinical issues arose from discussion of evidence-based or clinical consensus recommendations.
