You raise a legit concern. Slideshare slides often get shared because they’re quick and visually digestible, but in reality, they’re rarely peer-reviewed and can easily perpetuate outdated ideas—like overemphasizing ultrasound criteria or ignoring the latest international consensus on diagnosis and management. The real depth comes from guidelines and recent review articles, which get updated as new research emerges.
I get the appeal of a simple summary, but for something as complex and ever-evolving as PCOS, relying on random decks is risky. If someone really wants a quick overview, reputable sources like UpToDate, patient info leaflets from RCOG/ACOG, or evidence-based review sites are far superior. Using Slideshare as a main resource honestly feels like cutting corners, especially in medical discussions where accuracy really matters.
