Participants will receive letrozole at an initial dose of 2.5 mg\u002Fday for five days, starting on day 3 of the menstrual cycle. If ovulation is not achieved, the dose will be incrementally increased up to a maximum of 7.5 mg\u002Fday over a maximum of three cycles. Ovulation will be monitored through serial transvaginal ultrasounds to assess follicular development, and confirmed by measuring mid-luteal serum progesterone levels (\\>3 ng\u002FmL).

The study will include women aged 18-40 years diagnosed with PCOS based on the Rotterdam criteria, who are undergoing ovulation induction with letrozole for the first time.\n\nThe main questions it aims to answer are:\n\nWhat are the baseline laboratory and ultrasound differences between letrozole-resistant and letrozole-sensitive PCOS patients? What factors can predict letrozole resistance in PCOS patients? Researchers will compare letrozole-resistant and letrozole-sensitive PCOS patients to determine whether specific laboratory markers and ultrasound findings can predict resistance to letrozole.\n\nParticipants will:\n\nUndergo baseline clinical, laboratory, and ultrasound assessments before starting letrozole treatment.\n\nReceive letrozole treatment with dose escalation up to 7.5 mg\u002Fday over a maximum of three cycles if ovulation is not achieved.\n\nBe monitored through serial transvaginal ultrasounds to assess follicular development.\n\nHave ovulation confirmed via mid-luteal serum progesterone levels.
