Retrospective study

Περίληψη –Summary

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is the most common endocrine disorder among reproductive age women. It is well documented that the prevalence of impaired glucose tolerance and diabetes is increased in women with PCOS.

Aim: Aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence of glucose in Greek women with PCOS.

Method and material: 230 Greek women, who have been diagnosed with PCOS according to the criteria of the Rotterdam ESHRE, aged from 12 to 44 years, have been included in the study. The fasting plasma glucose has been analyzed.

Results: 230 women participated in our study. 209 blood results were valid. The mean of fasting plasma glucose was 82 mg/dl, the mean median was 83 mg/dl and the standard deviation was 12,87 mg/dl. The means of blood fasting glucose was gradually elevated according to age group.

In conclusion: The prevalence of fasting plasma glucose was 7.4% in patients with PCOS. The pathogenesis of metabolic syndrome and its components are complex.

The glucose is perhaps considered to be pathogenetic factor in the development of PCOS. The adult women presented higher prevalence of fasting plasma glucose in comparison with adolescent girls, so it is necessary these women to have a systematic follow up.
