Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is a prevalent and frequently encountered gynecological disorder. Its high variability and the complexities associated with its management often lead to psychological stress in affected women, manifesting in symptoms of depression. Embracing a healthy lifestyle is fundamental in PCOS treatment. Consistent adherence to a healthy lifestyle not only aids in improving PCOS symptoms but also plays a role in enhancing mental well-being. However, there is currently limited research examining the extent of depression, its prevalence, and its correlation with lifestyle among individuals with PCOS. Therefore, this study aims to explore the impact of lifestyle factors on the depressive state of individuals with PCOS.
This cross-sectional study gathered data from 411 individuals with PCOS at a comprehensive hospital in Henan, China. Depression status was assessed using the Hamilton Depression Scale, and demographic information as well as lifestyle habits were simultaneously collected. Univariate and multivariate analyses using logistic regression were conducted to identify risk factors associated with the depressive state in PCOS.
Among the surveyed 411 individuals with PCOS, approximately 49.4% exhibited symptoms of depression, with 83.7% experiencing mild depressive symptoms. A disease duration of 1-3 years, the presence of acne, and unhealthy lifestyle factors such as high-fat diet, staying up late, lack of exercise, and mental stress emerged as significant risk factors for the onset of depressive symptoms.
Depressive symptoms in individuals with PCOS are predominantly mild. The risk of comorbid depression in PCOS is associated with the presence of acne, frequent high-fat diet, regular staying up late, lack of exercise, and mental stress.
多囊卵巢综合征（PCOS）是一种常见且经常遇到的妇科疾病。其高度的可变性和管理的复杂性常导致受影响女性的心理压力，表现为抑郁症状。拥抱健康的生活方式是 PCOS 治疗的基础。坚持健康的生活方式不仅有助于改善 PCOS 症状，还有助于改善心理健康。然而，目前关于 PCOS 患者的抑郁程度、患病率及其与生活方式的相关性的研究有限。因此，本研究旨在探讨生活方式因素对 PCOS 患者抑郁状态的影响。
本横断面研究在中国河南的一家综合医院收集了 411 名 PCOS 患者的数据。使用汉密尔顿抑郁量表评估抑郁状态，同时收集人口统计学信息和生活方式习惯。使用逻辑回归进行单因素和多因素分析，以确定与 PCOS 抑郁状态相关的风险因素。
在所调查的 411 名 PCOS 患者中，约 49.4% 出现抑郁症状，其中 83.7% 为轻度抑郁症状。病程 1-3 年、存在痤疮以及不健康的生活方式因素，如高脂肪饮食、熬夜、缺乏运动和精神压力，是出现抑郁症状的显著风险因素。
PCOS 患者的抑郁症状主要为轻度。PCOS 合并抑郁的风险与痤疮、经常高脂肪饮食、经常熬夜、缺乏运动和精神压力有关。
