Ovarian Syndrome

Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is a probably fastest growing endocrinological disorder in females of reproductive age. In PCOS, follicular growth is influenced by hormonal imbalance during the ovarian cycle, leads to affected follicles remain in the ovary. The prevalence of PCOS is estimated 6-10% globally and 3.7% - 22.5% in Indian female population, which is relatively high. It is characterised by hyperandrogenism, anovulation and polycystic ovaries which clinically manifests in the terms of amenorrhea or oligomenorrhea, hirsutism, acne, infertility etc. In present scenario, incidence of this disease increasing exponentially due to sedentary lifestyle and faulty dietary habits. This particular disease is not described word to word in Ayurveda. Associated features of PCOS are closely resembling with Bandhya Yonivyapada, Artavavahasrotasa-Vidhha Lakshana, Nastartava and Ksheenaartava described by Acharya Sushruta and Pushpghani Jatharini and Vikuta Jatharini mentioned by Acharya Kashyap. Maximum congruence of PCOS can be established with Bandhya Yonivyapada. The purpose of this study is to understand Nastartava which is the cardinal feature of Bandhya. Word Artava has been used exclusively in Samhita in context of menstrual blood, ovum and ovarian hormones. Therefore Amenorrhea, anovulation, hormonal dysfunction is considered exposed manifestations of Nastartava. Possible line of treatment is stipulated with Nidanaparivarjan, herbal drugs and Panchakarma procedures. Keywords- Ayurveda, Artava, Nastartava, PCOS, Herbal drugs, Panchakarma

Ovarian Syndrome

Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is the most common endocrine ovarian disorder affecting 5 to 10% women of reproductive age. It is also known as stein- laventhal syndrome or hyper androgenic Anovulation. The main primary character of PCOS is irregular menstrual cycle which leads to improper ovulation. Exact pathogenesis of PCOS is not understood clearly, it may be discussed under following headings: Abnormality of Hypothalamic-pituitary compartment (Hormonal imbalance), androgen excess, anovulation, obesity and insulin resistance etc. Srotas are the circulatory channels through which Dosha’s, Dhatu’s and Mala’s moves from one part to another part of the body. Each srotas has srotomoola, srotomarga and srotomukha. The moolasthana of artavavaha srotas are garbhashaya(uterus) and artavavahi dhamani’s(uterine & ovarian arteries). Artavavaha srotas may be categorized into Shonita artavavaha srotas which carries menstrual blood through blood vessels and capillaries of the uterus & Beejartavavaha srotas which carries ovum through fallopian tubes. Abnormality of Artavavaha srotas causes Vandhyatva, Maithuna Asahishnuta and Artavanasha. Vandhyatva caused due to abnormality in chaturvidha garbhottpadaka(rutu, kshetra, ambu and beeja) samagri. Maithuna Asahishnuta related to vatala, paripluta, vipluta and shandi yoniyapada, while Artavanasha related to Vandhya, Arajaska and shushka yonivyapada. All these symptoms like Vandhyatva, Maithuna Asahishnuta and Artavanasha are correlated with common symptoms of PCOS which include Infertility, Dyspareunia & Amenorrhoea respectively. As there is no curative treatment available in modern medicine, understanding of PCOS with reference to Artavavaha sroto dusti may be a ray of hope to treat PCOS with Ayurvedic remedies. KEY WORDS: Artava, Srotas, PCOS, Vandhyatva, Yonivyapada.

Ovarian Syndrome

Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is the commonest cause of anovulatory infertility. Depending on the population studied between 5 and 18% of women of reproductive age suffer from PCOS, however not all of them are anovulatory or experience subfertility. PCOS has been associated with numerous reproductive and metabolic abnormalities. Despite enormous advances in the management of reproductive dysfunction, insight into the metabolic implications of PCOS is limited by the lack of uniform diagnostic criteria, the heterogeneity of the condition and the presence of confounders including obesity. Obesity clearly has a role in long term health and may best predict both reproductive and metabolic dysfunction as well as negatively affect the response to treatment in women with PCOS. Diabetes, cardiovascular disease and cancer are also at the forefront of any risk assessment or comprehensive treatment strategy for these women. Lifestyle modifications including dietary changes, increased exercise and weight loss are appropriate first line interventions for many women with PCOS. Pharmaceuticals including metformin, lipid lowering agents and oral contraceptives should be tailored to the individual’s risk profile and treatment goals. The fertility treatment in women with subfertility and PCOS aimed to safely induce monofollicular ovulation resulting in the birth of a singleton child. Women with PCOS undergoing fertility treatment are at risk of multi-follicular development as well as ovarian hyper-stimulation syndrome (OHSS), so they must be carefully counselled and monitored during fertility treatment. It is imperative that prior to embarking on fertility treatment, a patient’s health and weight is optimised. This chapter will explore the latest evidence for fertility treatments for women with PCOS.

Ovarian Syndrome

Women of reproductive age are suffering from severe hormonal imbalance due to polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS).Clinical manifestations of PCOS are diverse including hyperandrogenism, anovulation, infertility and increased risk of metabolic diseases besides psychosocial dysfunction.Additionally, PCOS leads to various other disturbances such as glucose tolerance, cardiovascular disease, dyslipidemia, obesity and metabolic disturbances. Environmental pollutants and Xenobiotic compounds cause changes in gut microbiota, which further affects metabolism causing metabolic disturbances may lead to PCOS.Various metabolic anomalies resulting from interaction with xenobiotic compounds and environmental pollutants contribute for hormonal imbalance. It is an interlinked vicious circle affected by epigenetic and environmental parameters.Epigenetic approach and molecular analysis of genes involved in PCOS is essential for specific treatment.Biochemical markers like assessment of hormones(hyperandrogenism)and ultrasound (in patients above twenty years of age)used as diagnostic parameters for detection of PCOS. Adaptinga healthy lifestyle and minimal exposure to xenobiotic compounds and resetting the disturbed sleep cycle will benefit the patient. Study of molecular markers will help in treating the PCOS in a better manner. This review focuses on important parameters of pathophysiology, which will help in understanding andcreating awarenesson PCOS.

Objective: Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is the most prevalent endocrine disorder, affecting up to 6.8% of women at their prime reproductive age. The aim of the study is to prove the interrelationship between food patterns, age, and anthropometric measurements in relation with body mass index (BMI) among PCOS women and control participants. Methods: The study was performed among 80 PCOS women and control participants according to the Rotterdam criteria. The data were collected through questionnaire which included age, socioeconomic data, anthropometric details, and food pattern, and the values were analyzed using Minitab 17 by Box plot method for graphical representation. The comparative analysis between age group and BMI was done by ANOVA. Results: The results showed that there was significant relationship between inappropriate food pattern and PCOS women showing higher frequency of ±8.30 among age group (19-24 years) with an average BMI of 31.6 kg/m2. The unhealthy diet along with BMI was correlated with the visual examination of presence of hirsutism. From the ANOVA analysis, it was significantly proved with probability (p=0.002); there was stronger association between lifestyle modifications and PCOS. This is the first association study to correlate between dietary habitat and age group with BMI among South Indian in Coimbatore district. Conclusion: From the results obtained, it is necessary to create awareness for women and girls about the ill effects of lifestyle modifications, unhealthy food pattern, and lack of physical activity which lead hormonal and metabolic changes.

Background: The endometrium is one of the most important female reproductive organs. Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is a reproductive and endocrine pathology that affect women of reproductive age. PCOS negatively affects the endometrium, leading to implantation failure and proliferative aberrations. Methods: We conducted a search at the http://www.ncbi.nlm.nhi.gov/pubmed/electronic database using the following key words: endometrial steroid receptors, endometrium, uterine function, endometrium and PCOS, implantation window, implantation and PCOS, implantation markers, inflammation, oxidative stress. We selected the articles based on their titles and abstracts, then we analyzed the full text and classified the articles depending on the information provided according to the sections of the present review. Results: The endocrine and metabolic abnormalities displayed in women with PCOS promote complex effects on the endometrium, leading to a low rate of implantation and even infertility. Women with PCOS show alterations in the Hypothalamic-Pituitary- Ovarian axis, which results in constant circulating levels of estrogen, similar to those at the early follicular phase, and a deficiency in the withdrawal of estrogen and progesterone. Besides this deficiency in the withdrawal of estrogen and progesterone, the insulin/ glucose pathway, adhesion molecules, cytokines and the inflammatory cascade, together with the establishment of a pro-oxidative status, lead to an imbalance in the uterine function, which in turn leads to implantation failure or even endometrial cancer. Conclusion: Women with PCOS display a dysregulation of the Hypothalamic-Pituitary- Ovarian axis, which alters the steroid pathway. In addition, the deficiency in the withdrawal of estrogen and progesterone in the endometrium results in abnormal endometrial cellular proliferation. The imbalance in adipose tissue observed in PCOS patients reinforces the increase in circulating hormones. The present review describes the role of hormones, metabolites, cytokines, adhesion molecules and the insulin/glucose pathway related to the uterine endometrium in women with PCOS and their role in implantation failure and development of endometrial cancer.

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.

Introduction: Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) is a common endocrine disorder in the women of reproductive age. Studies show that there is an intensive relationship between insulin and gonadal function. As per Rotterdam Criteria, there are four major phenotypes of PCOS with different presentation. Early detection of Insulin Resistance (IR) and consequential prevention of Metabolic Syndrome (MS) associated with PCOS may lead to better prospect for the disease. Aim: To find the pattern of IR in all the phenotypes of PCOS in relation to Waist Hip Ratio (WHR), Body Mass Index (BMI) and Testosterone and thereby, providing data for designing phenotype specific treatment of the disease. Materials and Methods: In this cross-sectional observational study, fasting insulin and fasting glucose were analysed to calculate Homeostasis Model Assessment (HOMA-IR) and Testosterone for total 144 female subjects of reproductive age group (18-40 years). Subjects were classified in to four groups as per Rotterdam Criteria. Complete PCOS (PCO-COM), PCO with Oligo/Anovulation (PCO-O), Anovulation with Hyperandrogenism (O-HA), and PCO with Hyperandrogenism (PCO-HA). Regression analysis was done to find the relation among the study variables. Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) was used to analyse the significant variance among the groups. Results: IR was found to be maximum among O-HA phenotype (2.4±0.37) and lowest among PCO-HA phenotypes (1.3±0.22). Regression analysis shows that there exist significant associations between IR and BMI (t=4.96, p=0.001) as well as between IR and WHR (t=2.97, p=0.003). No independent association between testosterone and IR was observed. Conclusion: Significant difference of IR, WHR, and BMI was observed among the four phenotypes of PCOS. Due to increased IR, O-HA and PCO-COM phenotypes are more predisposed to Cardiometabolic consequences of PCOS.

Ovarian Syndrome

The Polycystic ovarian syndrome affects 6-15 % of reproductive age women worldwide. And recently the changing life styles and rising obesity worldwide have contributed to a rise in the incidence of PCOS. Though there are many issues with PCOS post conception. PCOS women are at increased risk of early pregnancy loss which is approx. three fold as compared to the women without PCOS. After successfully crossing the first trimester, they are at risk of developing pre- eclampsia, GDM, preterm birth and birth of small for gestational age infant. Also higher incidence of multiple pregnancies is there and the risks associated with them. All these leading to higher rate of c -section delivery. So, proper understanding of these risks, informing and counseling the patients regarding them facilitate closer maternal and fetal surveillance and help improving the outcome of pregnancy.
