Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a complicated condition that infects most adult women, causing various health problems in the reproductive system. So, the current research was performed to estimate and evaluate the oxidative stress caused by this syndrome by measuring the levels of enzymatic antioxidants and trace elements. The blood serum was gathered from 180 women in total (80 healthy and 100 women diagnosed with PCOS). Glutathione peroxidase (GPx), catalase (CAT), and superoxide dismutase (SOD) recorded a significant decrease (P***< 0.0001) in patients following age and marital status factor whereas copper and zinc showed decreasing significance (P**< 0.0001) in patients for the same variable. Also, there was a clinical correlation between (CAT, SOD, and GPx) and (Cu and Zn).
