Background: The chronic condition of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) in adolescents can affect different aspects of quality of life in them. This study aimed to determine the correlation between the quality of life with emotional states of depression, anxiety, and stress in adolescents with PCOS. Methods: This is a cross-sectional study conducted on 120 adolescents with PCOS in Tehran, Iran in 2019. The sociodemographic checklist, quality of life, depression, anxiety and stress (DASS) were assayed by valid and reliable questionnaires. The Pearson's correlation coefficient and linear regression were used for data analysis, which was performed by SPSS (V.22). Results: The mean (SD) age and menarche age of participants were 16.58 (1.36) and 12.52 (1.19) years, respectively. The most common clinical symptoms of adolescence were irregular menstruation (85%) and acne (61.7%). According to the result of this study, there was a significant reverse correlation between total score of SF-12 with total scores of depression, anxiety and stress (r=−0.395, p=0.001) and a significant reverse correlation was also found between each dimension of DASS scale and 12-Item Short Form Survey (SF-12) (p<0.001). Based on the linear regression model and after controlling the demographic variables, there was a linear regression relationship between total DASS score and SF-12 (Beta= −0.367, p= 0.003). Conclusion:The study results reveal the role of emotional states of depression, anxiety, and stress in the quality of life of adolescents with PCOS. Based on our findings, we emphasize the interventional studies and guides for improving all dimensions of quality of life and reducing the psychological burden of PCOS in later life of adolescence.

Background: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is associated with high levels of phsychological implications and detriments to quality of life (QoL). The aim of this study was to assess the quality of life (QoL), health related quality of life (HRQoL), depression, and anxiety in Iranian women with different PCOS phenotypes.Methods: The observational, cross-sectional study was carried out on 239 PCOS women PCOS which had been classified on the basis of Rotterdam criteria into four categories. Then they were classified into four groups according to the Rotterdam criteria: A (n=77), B (n=38), C (n=68), and D (n=56).Results: No significant differences were observed between the four PCOS phenotypes for anxiety, depression and QoL, likewise, HRQoL domains related to infertiliy, weight and emotional problems (P>0.05). Phenotypes A and B had worse HRQoL related to hirsutism (13.98±5.22, 14.13±6.23, P<0.001), also no significant differences were observed between them for HRQoL’s domains. While the score of acne in phenotype D (19.60±5.12, P=0.003) and menstrual score in phenotype C were significantly higher compare with the other PCOS groups (16.82±3.87, P<0.001). Conclusion: Presenting similar psychological profile in all phenotypes unveils the importance of pychological well-being screening, even in milder reproductive phenotypes.

Background Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is associated with high levels of phsychological implications and detriments to Quality of Life (QoL). The aim of this study was to assess Health- Related Quality of Life (HRQoL), depression, and anxiety in Iranian women with different PCOS phenotypes. Methods The present observational, cross-sectional study was carried out on 239 PCOS women who were classified on the basis of Rotterdam criteria into four categories: A (n = 77), B (n = 38), C (n = 68), and D (n = 56). They asked to fill out three questionnaires, namely, HRQoL, SF-12, and HADS. Results No significant differences were observed between the four PCOS phenotypes for anxiety, depression and QoL, as well as HRQoL domains related to infertiliy, weight and emotional problems (P > 0.05). Phenotypes A and B had worse HRQoL related to hirsutism (13.98 ± 5.22, 14.13 ± 6.23, P < 0.001). In addition, no significant differences were observed between them for HRQoL domains. While the score of acne in phenotype D (19.60 ± 5.12, P = 0.003) and menstrual score in phenotype C were significantly higher comparing to the other PCOS groups (16.82 ± 3.87, P < 0.001). Conclusion Presenting similar psychological profiles in all phenotypes unveils the importance of pychological well-being screening, even in milder reproductive phenotypes.
