To evaluate whether polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) patients with different pulsatility index (PI) of uterine artery showed differences in their hormonal pattern.
Eighty-eight PCOS-affected patients and 15 controls were submitted to Doppler flow measurement of uterine artery; LH, FSH PRL, estradiol, and androgens concentration determination; and BMI evaluation during early follicular phase.
The mean PI of uterine artery of PCOS patients was significantly higher than control group (2.97 +/- 0.9 vs. 1.89 +/- 0.2 respectively). The distribution of the PI'values was significantly different in the PCOS-affected patients and in control group. The plasma levels of DHEAS and BMI were significantly higher in PCOS patients with PI > or = 3 than in PCOS patients with PI < 3.
High resistance in the uterine artery is present in PCOS patients, but a wide range PI values of uterine artery is present. BMI and DHEAS seem to be factors interfering with uterine perfusion.
评估子宫动脉搏动指数(PI)不同的多囊卵巢综合征(PCOS)患者其激素模式是否存在差异。
88例PCOS患者和15例对照者接受子宫动脉多普勒血流测量;测定卵泡早期的促黄体生成素(LH)、促卵泡生成素(FSH)、泌乳素(PRL)、雌二醇和雄激素浓度;并评估体重指数(BMI)。
PCOS患者子宫动脉的平均PI显著高于对照组(分别为2.97±0.9和1.89±0.2)。PCOS患者和对照组PI值的分布有显著差异。PI≥3的PCOS患者的硫酸脱氢表雄酮(DHEAS)血浆水平和BMI显著高于PI<3的PCOS患者。
PCOS患者子宫动脉存在高阻力,但子宫动脉PI值范围较宽。BMI和DHEAS似乎是影响子宫灌注的因素。
