The subpopulation of women with PCOS whose serum testosterone levels are in the normal reproductive range are at increased risk for sexual dysfunction.

📌 3 Key Takeaways

🎯
Objective & Hypothesis:INTRODUCTION: To compare the differences in sexual function between women with PCOS and controls, and to assess the relationship of serum testosterone, body mass index (BMI), hirsutism, and acne with sexual function scores in women with PCOS.
📊
Key Findings & Data:RESULTS: The differences between for the total FSFI scores were not statistically different, the mean FSFI scores for women with PCOS were lower in every category as compared with controls, but the differences were only statistically significant for orgasm.(4.44±0.07, p 1 standard deviation above the mean had significantly better sexual functioning DISCUSSION and CONCLUSION: Women with PCOS have similar sexual functioning scores compared with controls except in regard to orgasm.

Abstract

INTRODUCTION: To compare the differences in sexual function between women with PCOS and controls, and to assess the relationship of serum testosterone, body mass index (BMI), hirsutism, and acne with sexual function scores in women with PCOS. METHODS: A cross-sectional analysis in which women who met the Rotterdam criteria for PCOS were compared with a group of healthy volunteers. Results from the validated Female Sexual Dysfunction Index(FSFI) were used to assess sexual function. In women with PCOS, serum testosterone levels, BMI, self-reported hirsutism, and acne were assessed as independent variables. RESULTS: The differences between for the total FSFI scores were not statistically different, the mean FSFI scores for women with PCOS were lower in every category as compared with controls, but the differences were only statistically significant for orgasm.(4.44±0.07, p 1 standard deviation above the mean had significantly better sexual functioning DISCUSSION and CONCLUSION: Women with PCOS have similar sexual functioning scores compared with controls except in regard to orgasm. The subpopulation of women with PCOS whose serum testosterone levels are in the normal reproductive range are at increased risk for sexual dysfunction.

Özet

GİRİŞ ve AMAÇ: Polikistik Over Sendromu(PKOS) olan kadınlarla, kontrol grubu arasında seksüel disfonksiyon skorları açısından fark olup olmadığını ve ayrıca PKOS lu kadınlarda seksüel disfonksiyon skorlarının serum testosteron ve body mass indeksi arasındaki ilişkiyi değerlendirdik YÖNTEM ve GEREÇLER: PKOS için Roterdam kriterlerini karşılayan kadınlarla kontrol grubu arasında seksüel fonksiyon değerlendirilmesinde kadın cinsel disfonkiyon indeksi (FSFI) kullanıldı. PKOS lu kadınlarda serum testosteron seviyeleri ve Body mass indeks değerleri bağımsız değişkenler olarak değerlendirildi BULGULAR: Total FSFI skorları arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı fark bulunmadı. Ortalama FSFI skorları PKOS lu kadınlarda her kategoride düşük olarak saptanmasına rağmen istatistiksel olarak sadece orgasm skoru için anlamlı fark bulundu.( 4.44±0.07, p 1 olan PKOS lu hastalar belirgin olarak daha iyi seksüel fonksiyonlara sahip olduğu bulundu. BMI ile FSFI skorları arasından belirgin bir fark saptanmadı. TARTIŞMA ve SONUÇ: PKOS lu kadınlar ile kontrol grubundaki kadınlar orgasm skorları dışında benzer seksüel fonksiyonlara sahip olduğu saptandı. PKOS lu kadınlarda serum testosterone seviyeleri normal reprodüktif çağdaki hastalarla aynı olanlar seksüel disfonksiyon açısından risk grubuna girmektedir.
