I believe PCOS is most likely genetic. I believe that if you are genetically prone to PCOS, you may or may not develop it. I think in some people the major hormone changes during puberty may trigger it to pop up, but in others it remains dormant. For some, it seems to appear later in life. This could possibly correspond with other hormonal changes, major life stress, or changes in diet/exercise.
Either way, I do believe there is a strong genetic component to it. I hope that in the near future they can find the gene and more information will be available.
