Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is one of the most common endocrine disorder that may be effective in reducing the quality of life. This study aimed to determine the predictors of quality of life in women with PCOS. This cross-sectional study was conducted on 174 women with PCOS who attended in public and private fertility clinics in Urmia (West Azerbaijan, Iran), 2015. The data were collected through the questionnaires of sociodemographic and obstetrics characteristics, quality of life and Beck depression inventory-II. Multivariate linear regression was used to estimate the effect rate of the independent variables (depression and sociodemographic characteristics) on the dependent variable (quality of life). In this study, the mean (standard deviation) of total score of the quality of life was obtained, 45.8 (11.3) in the range 0-100. The highest and lowest mean scores were in the subdomains of weight and hirsutism. The variables of depression, body mass index, woman's job, menstrual cycle intervals, and sexual satisfaction were predictors of the quality of life in women with PCOS. Because of various effective factors on quality of life in these women such as depression, necessary strategies must be implemented to control these factors and improve the quality of life.
多囊卵巢综合征（PCOS）是最常见的内分泌紊乱疾病之一，可能会降低生活质量。本研究旨在确定PCOS女性生活质量的预测因素。这项横断面研究于2015年对在伊朗西阿塞拜疆省乌尔米耶的公立和私立生育诊所就诊的174名PCOS女性进行。数据通过社会人口统计学和产科特征问卷、生活质量问卷和贝克抑郁量表-II收集。采用多元线性回归来估计自变量（抑郁和社会人口统计学特征）对因变量（生活质量）的影响率。在本研究中，生活质量总分的平均值（标准差）为45.8（11.3），范围为0至100。最高和最低平均分出现在体重和多毛症子领域。抑郁、体重指数、女性职业、月经周期间隔和性满意度等变量是PCOS女性生活质量的预测因素。由于这些女性生活质量受到多种有效因素的影响，如抑郁，必须实施必要的策略来控制这些因素并提高生活质量。
