Abstract EN
Polycystic ovary syndrome is an endocrine disorder in which the number of cysts in women’s ovaries is dramatically increased.
It is a principle factor behind different symptoms and problems.
Although non-life threatening, it may lead to some disease processes in later life.
This study aimed to examine the alterations of luteinizing hormone, follicle stimulating hormone, testosterone and prolactin levels with increased levels of depression in polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) patients.
Psychological assessment of 50 women of reproductive age was performed using Beck’s Depression Inventory.
In PCOS patients, depression induced LH and prolactin levels and markedly lowered FSH with a maintenance of an expected normal LH/FSH ratio.
No change in testosterone was noted.
Few symptoms of hirsutism were seen.
Conclusion: It seems that LH level is clearly increased and FSH level decreased significantly in comparison with their normal ranges.
Prolactin tests were markedly elevated, while no alteration was noted for testosterone
