In calculating the sample size, type 1 error, research power and effect size parameters are determined before the research begins. Studies generally need to have at least 80% power. In order to find a significant difference, it is calculated that there should be at least 30 students in each group at 80% power and 95% confidence level. Considering the possible risks, it is planned to include 70 women in total in 2 groups (study and control), with 35 women in each group.

Experimental: Education Group
Training for women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (POS) can play an important role in improving quality of life and managing symptoms. These trainings may cover topics such as healthy lifestyle choices, nutritional habits, exercise, stress management and strategies to support hormone balance. Acquiring these knowledge and skills can help women cope with POS, promote psychosocial recovery, and improve their overall quality of life.
Experimental: Control Group
Since there was no training given to the control group, its effect on the participants' quality of life could not be evaluated. However, considering the potential of regularly provided training for women with polycystic ovary syndrome to improve quality of life, it may be important to provide similar training to the control group and compare the results. In this way, the effectiveness of training can be understood more clearly and the relationship between POS and quality of life can be evaluated more comprehensively.
