Figure 1 Pooled prevalences of the PCOS phenotypes for unselected (n = 9) and referral (n = 34) populations: phenotype A (clinical and/or biochemical HA + OA + PCOM). Referral 50% (95% CI, 46%–54%, I2 = 94.70); unselected 19% (95% CI, 13%–27%, I2 = 87.08); subgroup difference P<.001.

Figure 2 Pooled prevalences of the PCOS phenotypes for unselected (n = 9) and referral (n = 34) populations: phenotype B (clinical and/or biochemical HA + OA). Referral 13% (95% CI, 11%–17%, I2 = 96.21); unselected 25% (95% CI, 15%–37%, I2 = 93.25); subgroup difference P=.026.

Figure 3 Pooled prevalences of the PCOS phenotypes for unselected (n = 9) and referral (n = 34) populations: phenotype C (clinical and/or biochemical HA + PCOM). Referral 14% (95% CI, 12%–16%, I2 = 91.37); unselected 34% (95% CI, 25%–46%, I2 = 90.75); subgroup difference P<.001.

Figure 4 Pooled prevalences of the PCOS phenotypes for unselected (n = 9) and referral (n = 34) populations: phenotype D (OA + PCOM). Referral 17% (95% CI, 13%–22%, I2 = 97.39); unselected 19% (95% CI, 14%–25%, I2 = 78.31); subgroup difference P=.625.
