Hormonal disorders in women of reproductive age, including polycystic ovary syndrome, hyperandrogenism, thyroid dysfunction and hyperprolactinemia, are characterized by clinical heterogeneity and considerable variability in laboratory parameters, which significantly complicate timely diagnosis and the choice of optimal therapy. This review analyzes the latest findings on the use of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning methods to study laboratory, clinical, and imaging data, with the aim of improving diagnostic accuracy and personalized treatment strategies. The use of AI makes it possible to integrate diverse sources of information, namely hormone profiles, medical imaging data, clinical and medical history characteristics as well as their changes over time, and to identify complex non-linear relationships that cannot be detected using traditional analytical methods. The implementation of AI as a tool to support clinical decision-making is of particular importance. It has been shown that the use of AI helps to assess the risk of developing diseases at the primary screening stage, improve the accuracy of differential diagnosis and predict response to treatment; this, in turn, can facilitate and accelerate the clinician’s work, as well as reduce the likelihood of diagnostic errors.
Conclusion. AI methods hold considerable potential for improving the diagnosis and management of conditions such as polycystic ovary syndrome, hyperandrogenism, thyroid dysfunction and hyperprolactinemia. However, the use of AI in clinical practice is limited by small sample sizes, insufficient external validation of models, issues regarding the interpretability of algorithms and data protection concerns. There is a need to standardize approaches and establish representative databases in order to improve accuracy and ensure the successful integration of AI into routine medical practice.
