Zusammenfassung: | Purpose
To correlate the clinical, hormonal, biochemical and ultrasound parameters in adolescent patients with polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) and to compare them with adult patients.
Methods
This was a prospective, correlational study. 50 adult (20–35 years) and 50 adolescent patients (15–19 years) who had features of PCOS (Rotterdam Criteria, 2003) were selected. The control group comprised of 50 women of same age in each group with normal parameters. Pelvic ultrasound was done in early follicular phase (3–5th day of menstrual cycle). Assessment of hormonal and biochemical parameters (LH/FSH ratio, free testosterone level, lipid profile and fasting glucose/insulin ratio) and grey-scale ultrasound was done.
Results
No significant difference was observed in menstrual pattern in adults and adolescents with PCOS. The mean values of serum LH/FSH ratio and free testosterone were significantly higher in both adult and adolescent PCOS patients as compared to their controls (
