Ovarian Syndrome

Background: Polycystic ovary syndrome is an endocrine disorder that affects approximately 5% of all women. It occurs amongst all races and nationalities. It is the most common hormonal disorder among women of reproductive age and is a leading cause of infertility. As polycystic ovarian syndrome is an ovarian disorder marked by a lack of estrogen, hyperandrogenaemia, obesity, hyper insulinaemia and starts early in the adolescent period. So, we should teach them regarding the clinical features treatment and prevention.Methods: A quasi experimental one group pre-test post design was adopted to assess the effectiveness of structured teaching programme on knowledge regarding polycystic ovarian syndrome among adolescent girls, Bangalore. A sample of 60 adolescent girls was selected from NRI higher secondary school, Bangalore by purposive sampling technique. Collected data was analysed by using descriptive and inferential statistics.Results: More than half 54 (90.0%) were having inadequate knowledge and 6 (10%) were having moderate knowledge regarding PCOS before STP.Conclusions: Structured teaching programme was significantly effective in increasing the knowledge of polycystic ovarian syndrome. The most important role of the nurse is to provide awareness on prevention and health promotion.

Background: Polycystic ovarian syndrome is a common female endocrine disorder affecting 4 – 18% of women in their reproductive age. It is common in adolescent girls. Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome affects throughout the life and produce gynaecological and metabolic health problems. The aim of this study to create the awareness about the polycystic ovarian syndrome to the adolescent girls.Methods: A Quantitative approach with pre- experimental design was used to study the effectiveness of STP on Poly Cystic Ovarian Syndrome. Ninety-four adolescent girls aged between 15 – 18 years were conveniently selected. Data was collected by using Structured Knowledge questionnaire.Results: The mean post-test knowledge score (22.55± 3.57) was higher than that of mean pre-test mean knowledge score (11.13± 3.32) and the mean difference was11.42. The ‘t’ calculated value was 23.45 which is higher than the tabulated value of 1.98 (df 93 at p< 0.05). Therefore, research hypothesis was accepted. So, it can be interpreting that structured teaching programme is effective in improving the knowledge of adolescent girls.Conclusions: The findings of the study revealed that STP was effective in enhancing the knowledge of adolescent girls on PCOS. Hence the study concluded that structured teaching programme had a great potentiality to increase the awareness on PCOS.

AbstractThe study was conducted to assess the effectiveness of structured teaching programme on knowledge of polycystic ovarian syndrome among adolescent girls. The study design adopted was pre experimental one group pre-test post- test design. The demographic Proforma were collected from the adolescent girls by using structured knowledge questionnaire. Data obtained in these areas were analysed using descriptive and inferential statistics. A significant difference between pre test and post test knowledge was found (t79= 2.0 p<0.05).The study findings showed that the structured teaching programme was effective in improving knowledge of adolescent girls regarding polycystic ovarian syndrome. There was no significant association between the level of knowledge and demographic variables except the group in which they study (Science, Arts, Commerce)

AbstractA study was done to assess the effectiveness of planned teaching programme (PTP) on polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) among adolescent girls in selected high schools at Mangalore. The main objectives of the study were1. To assess the pre-test level of knowledge regarding PCOS among adolescent girls in Selected high schools at Mangalore.2. To evaluate the effectiveness of Planned Teaching Programme on knowledge regarding Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome among adolescent girls in selected high schools at Mangalore.3. To find the association between the pre-test knowledge score of adolescent girls and selected variables.An evaluatory approach with pre-experimental one group pre-test post-test design was used for the study. The subjects were 100 adolescent girls selected by convenience sampling technique. PTP was administered after the assessment of pre-intervention knowledge on PCOS. Post intervention knowledge was assessed on the 7th day of the administration of PTP through the same structured knowledge questionnaire. The results of this study in general showed, the significant difference between the mean pre-test and posttest knowledge score (t99=7.02, p<0.05).The significant difference was found in between all the areas. There was no association between the pre-test knowledge score and selected demographic variables. Hence it can be concluded that PTP was effective in gaining knowledge of adolescent girls on PCOS. which was evident in post-test knowledge score.

Ovarian Syndrome

Background: Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is the most frequent endocrinological disorder affecting 5-10% of women in the reproductive age. This prevalence ranging from 2.2% to 26% in adult women from 18-45 year. In a recent study the prevalence of a confirmed diagnosis of PCOS in adolescents aged 10 to 19 years was 5-15%, which increased to 10-22%. When undiagnosed cases with documented symptoms qualifying for PCOS according to NIH (National institute of Health) criteria were included. PCOS is a complex endocrine disorder which is most common in women of reproductive age. PCOS may first present in adolescence, but the incidence of PCOS in adolescence is not known, as diagnostic criteria for PCOS in the adolescent age-group is still not defined, PCOS symptoms tend to overlap with normal pubertal changes making the diagnosis even more challenging. The objective is to study prevalence and symptomatology of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) in adolescent girls.Methods: Prospective Cross sectional study between April 2018 and March 2019. 150 adolescent girls aged 10 to 19 years attending OPD with oligomenorrhea, irregular menstrual cycle, obesity and/or hirsutism were advised for biochemical, hormonal, and ultrasonographic evaluation for diagnosis of PCOS on the basis of Rotterdam's criteria at the Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Krishna Institute of Medical Sciences, Deemed University, Karad, Maharashtra, India.Results: Prevalence of PCOS in the study was 17.33% in the study group.Conclusions: PCOS is increasingly encountered during adolescence, although the overall prevalence is low and evaluation of PCOS in adolescents is challenging. At this age, lifestyle modification is imperative to prevent long-term metabolic and reproductive complications.

ABSTRACT Introduction The polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is the most common condition associated with chronic anovulation affecting 4 to 6% of reproductive age women. Aim To compare the effectiveness of laparoscopic ovarian drilling (LOD) for ovulation induction with gonadotropins in clomiphene-resistant PCOS in terms of ovulation, pregnancy, live birth, abortion, multiple pregnancies, and complication like ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS). Setting and design A prospective hospital-based randomized trial. Materials and methods It was a prospective study, which was carried out from January 2012 to May 2015. Totally, 89 women were evaluated in the study, out of which 44 women were in gonadotropin group and 45 were in LOD group. Statistical analysis Standard statistical analysis was done and significance of difference in results was tested by chi-square test. Results Ovulation rate in gonadotropin group was 75.0% at 6 months, whereas in LOD group, it was 20% at 3 months and was increased up to 66.66% after addition of clomiphene citrate and gonadotropin. The primary outcome in terms of pregnancy in gonadotropin group was 45.45% after 6 cycles and in LOD group was 11.11% after 3 cycles and 40.00% after 6 cycles with supplementation of clomiphene citrate and gonadotropin. Conclusion The ongoing pregnancy rate from ovulation induction with LOD alone was significantly less but if supplemented by clomiphene citrate and gonadotropin, it seems equivalent to ovulation induction with gonadotropin, but the former procedure carries a lower risk of multiple pregnancies.
