A Study on the Clinical, Hormonal and Gynecological Parameters in Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome

This study investigated the clinical, hormonal, and gynecological parameters in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) compared to healthy controls. Conducted with 104 women (52 with PCOS and 52 controls), the research found that women with PCOS had a higher body mass index and more frequent occurrences of oligomenorrhea, amenorrhea, hirsutism, acne, and androgenic alopecia. Hormonal analysis showed elevated luteinizing hormone and estradiol levels, with a higher LH:FSH ratio, while follicle-stimulating hormone was lower. Ultrasound results indicated larger ovarian volumes and increased follicle counts, with polycystic ovarian morphology present in 73.1% of affected women. The study concludes that these distinct clinical, hormonal, and ultrasonographic differences can enhance diagnostic precision and support comprehensive assessment in routine gynecological practice.
