Brief Summary   Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is the most well-known heterogeneous endocrine disorder in women of reproductive age with speculative etiology, causing a wide range of reproductive, metabolic, endocrine, and psychological effects. Among them are ovulatory dysfunction, menstrual irregularities, infertility, hyperandrogenism, increased insulin level, obesity, obstructive sleep apnea, non alcoholic fatty liver, eating and mood disorders, cardiovascular disease (CVD) and an increased risk of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) are significant factors. Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is one of the most common endocrine conditions, affecting 8–13% of women and 3.4–19.6% of adolescent girls. The highest prevalence (19.6%) was reported in adolescents with type 2 diabetes. patients with PCOS have alterations in several reproductive pathways independently of their ovulatory status. These include primary and secondary alterations of the oocyte and embryo quality, and of endometrial competence.3The major etiology behind PCOS is primary disordered gonadotropin secretions, ovarian and adrenal hyperandrogenism and disorder of insulin resistance. This can be treated with medications such as clomiphene citrate, tamoxifen, aromatase inhibitors, metformin, glucocorticoids, gonadotropins or surgically by laparoscopic ovarian drilling.  these drugs and methods have their own side effects. This disease has been described by Unani physician under the heading of amenorrhea, obesity and phlegmatic disease. Unani concept of PCOD is mainly based on the dominance of khilt balgham (phlegm). SuÌ„-i-mizaÌ„j barid of the liver may leads to abnormal production of phlegm, one of the abnormal forms of phlegm is balgham mā’iÌ„, which is thinner in consistency and can accumulate in sacs to form cysts., In unani system of medicine, many drugs are prescribed for amenorrhea which can be used in treatment of PCOS, like parsiyawashan, darchinin, kharkhasak, zanjabeel, abhal, mushktramashi, alsi, kalonji etc. Parsiyawashan has been considered for trial having mudirr-i-bawl wa hayd, mudirr-i-nafas, mufattih wa mudij-i-balgham, muhallil, mulattif etc. Also it possess many properties like antidiabetic, hypo-cholesterolemic, anti-obesity, anti-thyroidal effect, and antioxidant. It is easily available, cost effective and having less side effects. Hence it has been selected to evaluate the effect in PCOS.
