Abstract
Polycystic ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is one of the most common female endocrine disorders. PCOD produces symptoms in approximately 5% to 10% of women of reproductive age (12–45 years old). It is thought to be one of the leading causes of female subfertility. To establish correlation among LH, FSH, Insulin, HOMA-IR (homeostasis model assessment-estimated insulin resistance) fasting blood sugar and lipid profile among the women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), in order to evaluate their diagnostic and prognostic significance. This study includes total 500 female participants of age Group between 20-40 year of age. They were divided in to two groups. Group 1(n=300) includes women having PCOD and Group 2(n=200) is control Group. Fasting Blood samples were obtained from all participants to measure Blood sugar, Lipid Profile FSH, LH and Insulin. The Mean level of Fasting Blood sugar, S. cholesterol, S, Triglyceride, S.FSH, S. LH ,S. Insulin, S. HOMA IR is found to be higher in PCOS group as compared to control group and difference among them found to be statically significant. From our study we would like to conclude that Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common condition characterized by menstrual abnormalities and clinical or biochemical features of hyperandrogenism. Being Gynecologist we should keep in mind that the patient with PCOS that presents metabolic changes has a higher risk of suffering from infertility and that her altered emotions may be a cause for a delay in seeking medical advice, which will inevitably compromise her fertility even more.
