In addition, although a 2023 study in Denmark found no association between PCOS and overall ovarian cancer risk, a further analysis suggested that the risk of ovarian cancer was elevated in postmenopausal women.

The same study also linked PCOS with a higher risk of serious borderline . These are ovarian that contain atypical cells but that are not yet invasive.
