Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is an endocrine-metabolic disorder characterized by multiple hormonal imbalances; the clinical presentation dominated by manifestations of hyperandrogenism, which generates short- and long-term consequences on female health sterility, infertility is one of the most alarming associated morbidities. Forty women (28.9 ± 0.8 years old) with polycystic ovarian syndrome had infertility and there were enrolled in these clinical trials and randomly allocated into two groups. Group one and Group two were given treated infertility drugs (Clomid 5 mg for 5 days) and recombinant follicle-stimulating hormone (rFSH) 75 IU for long and short duration to get pregnant. Serum testosterone, progesterone, follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), and luteinizing hormone (LH) of both groups were measured when women diagnosed as PCOS. The results showed that women which treated by low-dose recombinant FSH 75 IU for 3 days consequently (Group one) have significant decreased LH, while progesterone and FSH significantly increased after treated by hormone therapy P ≥ 0.05 while after treatment with recombinant FSH IU for 5 days (Group two), the result showed non-significant effect as compared with the first group. Concluded: Increase pregnant rate and decrease over stimulation syndrome among infertile women associated with polycystic overian syndrome, when treated with applicated low dose and short term by rFSH hormone.

Background: Ovarian steroidogenesis requires gonadotropin stimulation, Luteinizing Hormone (LH) is a key factor in the hyperandrogenaemia of the polycystic ovary syndrome. Progesterone is the primary regulator of Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone (GnRH) pulse frequency; however, in the polycystic ovary syndrome, the GnRH pulse generator is relatively resistant to the negative feedback effects of progesterone.  Study aims to evaluate the association of Anti-mullerian hormone with serum androgen and gonadotropin level in adolescents and young women of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS).Methods: This was a single centre observational Cross-sectional study carried out in the department of Endocrinology and metabolism, Medical College, Kolkata from March 2017 to January 2019. Total number of study subjects were 207 out of which 138 were cases.Results: The AMH had strong positive correlation with serum testosterone in both case and control groups (r 0.542, p<0.001 and r 0.57, p<0.001) respectively .After the adjustment of age and BMI , the AMH moderately positive  but extremely significant correlation with serum testosterone as compare to control.Conclusions: Hyperandrogenaemia and higher ratio of LH and FSH associated with higher serum AMH level is associated with the higher serum AMH in polycystic ovarian syndrome.

Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is a common disorder for female with fertile age. Along with other clinical and biochemical manifestations, thyroid function and prolactin level may be altered in patients with PCOS. This study aimed to evaluate the clinical and biochemical status, as well as alteration of thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH), prolactin (PRL) level in patients with PCOS. Present study comprised of 100 diagnosed PCOS patients according to revised Rotterdem Consensus criteria. All patients were studied for serum testosterone, LH (lutenizing hormone), FSH (follicle stimulating hormone), blood glucose, lipid profile as well as TSH, FT4 (free thyroxin) and prolactin level. Out of 100 PCOS patients 97 had hirsutism, 64 had acanthosis nigricans, where menstrual irregularities were in 94 patients. Diastolic blood pressure (74±1.1 vs. 77±0.9, mmHg; p=0.017), total cholesterol (163±5.3 vs. 193±6.2 mg/dl; p<0.001), low density lipoprotein (LDL, 104±3.7 vs. 124±4.9 mg/dl; p=0.002) and frequency of acanthosis (25% vs. 75%; p<0.001) were significantly higher among the patients having BMI>25 Kg/m2 than those of have ? 25 Kg/m2. Among the fertile women (n=53), 47% had primary and 41.5% had secondary infertility; whereas of the total patients, 21% had altered thyroid function and 6.1% had raised prolactin (PRL, ng/ml) level. Differences of TSH (4.1±3.6 vs. 3.5±6.8, mIU/L; p=0.725) was not significant; whereas level of PRL (13.87±6.9vs. 9.4±5.2 ng/ml; p=0.018) was significantly higher in the group of primary infertility. Hirsutism, menstrual disturbance and acanthosis were very common in PCOS. Both primary and secondary sterility were also commonly observed and PRL was higher in primary infertility. About one fifth of PCOS had altered thyroid function.Bangladesh Med J. 2016 Jan; 45 (1): 1-5

Sixty-seven infertile women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) were divided into two groups, obese and non-obese, according to their body mass index. Waist-to-hip ratio, insulin resistance, total testosterone and dehydroepiandrosterone sulphate levels were significantly elevated in obese, compared with non-obese, patients. Both groups were treated with a low-dose step-up protocol of recombinant follicle-stimulating hormone (rFSH) with a starting dose of 50 IU/day and, every third day, a 25-IU increase in the dose until the appropriate dose was achieved for each individual, up to a maximum of 175 IU/day. In the obese group only, repeat therapy commenced in the second ovulatory cycle in women who had not become pregnant, however a starting dose of 75 IU/day was then used, with incremental and maximum dose as before. The results of the starting dose of 75 IU/day rFSH were compared with the results of a 50 IU/day rFSH starting dose in the obese group. A starting dose of 50 IU/day rFSH in a low-dose step-up regimen was found to be effective, safe and well-tolerated for inducing follicular development in non-obese infertile women with PCOS. However, for obese PCOS patients, a starting dose of 75 IU/day rFSH is recommended.
