Hi,
PCOS is mainly a lifestyle defect condition and life styles like eating, sleep, working or exercise habits simulate in a family so it can also run in families. It can be prevented by adopting healthy life style with optimum calorie intake with sufficient vitamins and minerals in diet / avoid obesity, do regular exercises daily for 45 minutes a day. Keep active through out day, have 6 hours sound sleep. No excessive or less sleep. Yes, by being careful you can prevent it.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
