Psychiatric disorders in women with polycystic ovary syndrome

Abstract: Zespół policystycznych jajników (PCOS) jest najczęściej rozpoznawaną endokrynopatią w okresie rozrodczym i dotyczy 5-8% kobiet w tym wieku. Charakteryzuje się hiperandrogenizmem, zaburzeniami miesiączkowania o typie rzadkich miesiączek lub ich braku oraz obrazem jajników policystycznych w ultrasonografii. Etiologia zespołu policystycznych jajników nadal nie jest do końca wyjaśniona. Istnieje wiele teorii patogenetycznych, które prawdopodobnie nawzajem się uzupełniają. Najbardziej poznana hipoteza zakłada, że d… Show more

“…Whether under treatment with antipsychotics or not, menstrual dysfunction is common in this population because of frequently high testosterone and low estrogen blood concentrations [39,40]. Co-morbidity with polycystic ovary syndrome is relatively frequent [41,42]. The hyperprolactinemia induced by antipsychotic medication further decreases estrogen levels and leads to menstrual irregularities such as amenorrhea, which is associated with low fertility [37,43].…”

“…The available literature clearly indicates what kind of problems women with PCOS face. Difficulties with getting pregnant, along with features related to hyperandrogenism, such as hirsutism or acne, may adversely affect the mental condition of these women and be associated with a higher feeling of anxiety or the risk of developing depression [ 88 , 89 , 90 , 91 ]. Interestingly, new studies conducted in animal models indicate a greater risk of developing the PCOS phenotype among female offspring of women with polycystic ovary syndrome [ 16 , 75 ].…”

“…It is well known that women diagnosed with polycystic ovary syndrome face higher levels of anxiety and are more likely to develop depressive disorders. Some researchers point to a direct relationship between these mood disorders and the occurrence of symptoms, such as acne or hirsutism, but opinions are divided on this issue [ 88 , 89 , 90 , 91 , 92 ]. Therefore, treatment should include counteracting all symptoms of the disease that are burdensome for patients [ 93 ].…”
