A meta-analysis of 13 cohort studies concluded that children of pregnant women with PCOS had a 1.36 times greater risk of developing autism than those without PCOS, and the effect was statistically significant (aOR= 1.36; 95% CI= 1.24 to 1.49; p<0.001). In addition, pregnant women with maternal diabetes have a 1.24 times higher risk of having a child with autism than those without maternal diabetes, and this effect is statistically significant (aOR= 1.24; 95% CI= 1.08 to 1.43; p=0.002).Conclusion: Pregnant women who have PCOS and maternal diabetes increase the risk of autism in children.
