“…When it comes to different ethnic origins, the prevalence of women with PCOS who are in normal weight and underweight is reported to be 1.5-6.6%. As in our study, subjects with BMI below 25 kg/m 2 are considered nonobese and BMI over 25 kg/m 2 is considered obese [3]. However, although the majority of PCOS women is overweight or obese, many lean women with PCOS are also considered at high risk for metabolic disorders such as hyperinsulinemia and insulin resistance.…”

“…Fat mass differences changed with sex, ethnicity, and age which are influenced by genetic, nutritional status, diet, behaviour, and socioeconomic, environmental, and hormonal factors [6]. If compared with the control group, there is higher waist-tohip ratio, greater intraperitoneal and visceral fat, and percentages of body fat in BMI-matched lean women with PCO [3]. Android fat pattern is the central in the cardiovascular risk management of metabolic syndrome.…”

Objective. To evaluate nutritional intake, energy expenditure, and segmental body composition in lean women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and compare them with age- and body mass index- (BMI-) matched control women. Methods. 32 nonobese patients with PCOS and 31 age- and BMI-matched healthy women were included in the study. Energy expenditure and physical activity level were assessed by metabolic Holter equipment (SenseWear Armband, SWA) which was never previously used in lean PCOS population. Food intake is recorded with 24 hours of food record. Segmental body composition analysis was assessed by bioelectrical impedance analyses (BIA). Results. Mean BMI was 22.64 ± 3.64 and 21.55 ± 2.77 kg/m2 (p=0.185) in PCOS and control groups, respectively. Mean age was 22.03 ± 4.21 and 21.71 ± 2.67 year (p=0.720), respectively. No significant differences were found in total energy intake and percentage of carbohydrates, fats, and other micronutrients (p>0.05). Energy percentage of proteins (%12.73 ± 1.98, p=0.008) was statistically lower in subjects versus the control group. The measurements of physical activity duration (PAD) (1.40 ± 0.87/2.18 ± 0.99 hours, p=0.002), active energy expenditure (372.35 ± 198.32/494.10 ± 186.50 kcal, p=0.018), and step counting (9370.03 ± 3587.49/11730.90 ± 3564.31 steps, p=0.013) measurement of the PCOS group were lower than the control group, respectively. Conclusions. New diagnosed women with PCOS had similar distribution and quantity of body fat parameters and nutritional status when compared to healthy women. Control subjects were found more active in energy expenditure.

PCOS is a widespread phenotypically inhomogeneous endocrinopathy with significant health consequences and incompletely elucidated pathogenesis. Though visceral adiposity and insulin resistance (IR) is a well-proved pathogenic set of factors of PCOS, not all women with obesity and IR have PCOS and not all PCOS women are obese and have IR, which is explained by certain genetic backgrounds. The reported prevalence of nonobese PCOS (NonObPCOS) is about 20–30%, but it may be higher because especially in lean women with nonclassical phenotypes PCOS diagnosis is often delayed or unrecognized. Unlike obese PCOS, NonObPCOS management is less clear and is limited to symptomatic treatment. This chapter presents in structured fashion the existing results on the prevalence of NonObPCOS, as well as on special aspects of body composition, IR, and hyperandrogenism pathogenesis, including adrenal contribution in NonObPCOS.
