A Síndrome dos Ovários Policísticos (SOP) é uma endocrinopatia frequente em mulheres em idade reprodutiva, caracterizada por hiperandrogenismo, disfunção ovulatória e alterações metabólicas. Sua fisiopatologia envolve desregulação do eixo hipotálamo-hipófise-ovário, resistência à insulina e produção aumentada de andrógenos ovarianos. Embora os anticoncepcionais orais combinados permaneçam como primeira linha de escolha no tratamento das manifestações hiperandrogênicas, seu impacto sobre parâmetros metabólicos é limitado, especialmente em pacientes com resistência insulínica e obesidade. Os agonistas do receptor do peptídeo-1 semelhante ao glucagon (GLP-1), como a liraglutida e a semaglutida, têm se mostrado eficaz na redução do peso corporal, melhora da sensibilidade à insulina e efeitos benéficos sobre os perfis hormonais, tornando-se uma alternativa promissora para mulheres com SOP. Deste modo, o objetivo deste estudo será realizar uma revisão bibliográfica sobre a eficácia dos tratamentos da SOP: anticoncepcionais orais combinados em uso isolado, anticoncepcionais orais combinados com uso de metformina e fármaco análogos ao GLP-1. Este trabalho é uma revisão bibliográfica realizada por meio de levantamento de artigos científicos do período de 2020 a 2025, na base de dados PubMed, utilizando os seguintes descritores: polycystic ovary syndrome and pharmacotherapy.
