Obesity in relation to clinical, endocrine and metabolic parameters in infertile women with polycystic ovary syndrome: the South Asian perspective

Background The most prevalent sexual differentiation disorder in males is undescended testis (UDT), which occurs when the testis is absent from the scrotum or cannot be brought down during a physical examination. Pregnancy outcome may be influenced by the wife’s lifestyle and surgical correction within the past year Objectives This study aims to determine pregnancy outcome in Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART) on a wive with a UDT husband assessed by the wive’s life style and surgery correction before 1 year. Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted. Data were taken from patients who underwent Assisted Reproductive Technology at AMC Hospital, Yogyakarta. Data collection from 2018 to 2021. Samples in the unilateral and bilateral groups were 20 husbands. Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test helped carry out the analyses. Results There was an association between infertility and UDT either unilaterally or bilaterally (p = 0.009). Most UDT husbands had a BMI in the overweight category and the average age was 28 and 29. Other factors such as the wive’s life style and surgery correction before 1 year , including smoking habit, alcohol consumption, addictive drug and hormonal drug, had no significant effect on the success of pregnancy outcome (p > 0.05). Conclusions Although pregnancy outcome in unilateral and bilateral UDT patients was not statistically significant, clinically, the pregnancy outcome was better in husbands with unilateral UDT by IUI than in IVF.

Introduction: Overweight and obesity caused by excess body fat accumulation is a leading public health problem globally. The objective of this study was to investigate the overweight and obesity prevalence and its accompanying factors among educational office staff in Kuantan, Malaysia. Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted among the staff of Widad University College (WUC) and Widad College (WC) using a self-administered validated questionnaire. Socio-demographic characteristics of the participants and obesity-related health information such as body mass index (BMI), smoking, alcoholics, physical activities and blood pressure status were obtained. The BMI was determined considering the participants weight in kilograms (kg) divided by the square of height in meters (kg/m2). Correlating the BMI with sociodemographic and health-related factors, the participants were characterized as underweight, normal, overweight and obese and presented as mean, frequency and percentage distribution. A p-value of <0.05 means a statistically significant result. Results: Overweight prevalence was 28.3% while obesity was 16.2 %. There were 13% of respondents underweight. A higher rate was found in males and Malay participants. Age, education, occupation, income, smoking, alcoholics, physical inactivity and hypertension were significantly linked to BMI. Conclusions: Overweight and obese constitute around 44% of the staff at WUC and WC, while 13 % were underweight. It is necessary to motivate employees through an effective training program organized by the employer towards maintaining a healthy lifestyle and thereby maintaining good health and improving work performance.

“…In addition to polycystic ovaries, infertility and obesity, this disorder is characterized by excessive hairiness, which is called hirsutism [4] . In this disorder, the outer layer of the ovary holds together, preventing the mature egg from emerging the ovarian layer, and without the release of this egg, the pregnancy process does not occur [5] . In addition, there will be an enlargement in the size of the ovary, which may reach three times its size, as well as an increase in the concentration of ovarian tissue in the middle of the ovary around the cysts.…”

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is receiving increasing attention, due to its association with many health troubles such as infertility and diabetes. The purpose of our study is to estimate the serum level of some indicators in women patients with PCOS. This study was conducted prospectively on 70 participating women who attended Al-Batool Teaching Hospital in Baquba (Iraq), with ages between (18-35) years, from February 2020 to November 2022. All the participating women were separative into two groups: )Control( group included 30 healthy women,and (PCOS) group included 40 women suffer from polycystic ovary syndrome. Ultrasound and analyzes of the sex hormones of the participants were used to confirm the detection of PCOS. Serological biomarkers were measured for both groups, including histidine, ferritin, follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinizing hormone (LH), prolactin, and estrogen (E2). Results proven a notable reduction in the serum levels of hepcidin and FSH in PCOS group compared to healthy control group. In contrast, a considerable increases in levels of LH, prolactin, ferritin, and estrogen E2 hormone were observed in patients with PCOS. It was founded that these biochemical indicators may be a reliable diagnostic measure for polycystic ovary syndrome cases. Bangladesh Journal of Medical Science Vol.22 (Special Issue) 2023 p.4-9
