We determined the effect of chronic androgen suppression on inflammation in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) compared to weight-matched controls. We performed a pilot project using samples from previous prospective, controlled studies. Nine women with PCOS (5 obese, 4 lean) and 9
Acanthosis nigricans and hyperandrogenism are commonly found in patients with extreme target cell resistance to insulin, as in the type A and B syndromes of insulin resistance. However, the significance of concurrent acanthosis nigricans and hyperandrogenism in other clinical settings is not clear.
Whether or not blood pressure (BP) and heart function of women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) are altered remains unclear, albeit subtle abnormalities in the regulation of BP observed in these women might suggest a mild masculinization of their cardiovascular system. To study the influence of
OBJECTIVE
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is associated with biochemical evidence of early atherosclerosis; however, data regarding vascular function are controversial. We hypothesized that resistance vessel function (mediated by the endothelium or smooth muscle) would be impaired in women with
The study was conducted to assess the GH-IGF-I axis in non-obese women with functional hyperandrogenism (FH). Eighteen FH women aged 18-35 yr with a body weight within 20% of ideal body weight and 10 weight-matched controls were included in the study. Basal serum GH, GH-binding protein (GHBP),
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common condition characterized by reproductive and hyperandrogenic features and is often associated with obesity and metabolic dysfunction. Overall, women with PCOS have a substantially greater prevalence of metabolic syndrome than women from the general
OBJECTIVE
The aim of this study was to determine if an association exists between adolescents with polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) or hyperandrogenism (HA), obesity, and paratubal cysts (PTCs).
METHODS
An institutional review board-approved retrospective chart review was performed between the
OBJECTIVE
Functional ovarian hyperandrogenism (FOH) is considered to be a form of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) at adolescence. There are almost no data in the prepubertal period, although one of the earliest manifestations of PCOS is premature pubarche. Prepubertal girls with obesity or insulin
Several lines of evidence suggest that a subset of women may be at increased risk of cardiovascular disease because of unfavorable alterations in insulin action and/or production, accompanying altered apolipoprotein metabolism and altered androgenicity and/or estrogenicity. A number of
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the effect of hyperandrogenism on metabolic disorders among patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) diagnosed using the Rotterdam criteria.
METHODS
A retrospective analysis of the clinical records of 883 women with PCOS and 717 premenopausal controls identified from the
To investigate the relationship between overweight and hyperandrogenism, a 1500 kcal/day diet was prescribed for 4 months to 23 hirsute and obese patients. This diet decreased body mass index from 29.9 +/- 4.9 to 27.2 +/- 4.4 kg/m2 (P < 0.008), but had no significant effect on fasting insulin levels
The authors report the hormonologic characteristics of 20 obese and hirsute women meeting the criteria for adrenaltype hyperandrogenism, suppressible by dexamethasone, without hyperprolactinemia and without any late developing partial enzyme block appearance. The laboratory profile of these women
Insulin resistance has been reported to be associated with hyperandrogenism and polycystic ovaries. To study the prevalence of insulin resistance in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCO) and the correlation between hyperinsulinemia and hyperandrogenism, 48 patients were divided into four
UNASSIGNED
The objective of this study was to evaluate whether body weight status and clinical hyperandrogenism may influence social competencies and psychological gender features in adolescent girls.
UNASSIGNED
In 104 adolescent girls, psychological gender inventory (PGI) and social competencies
Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is an obvious indication for long-term treatment. Combined oral contraceptives (COC) remain the first choice for the treatment of hyperandrogenism in most patients. However, differences in endocrine and metabolic parameters between obese and lean patients have been
