AbstractThe study was conducted to assess the effectiveness of structured teaching programme on knowledge of polycystic ovarian syndrome among adolescent girls. The study design adopted was pre experimental one group pre-test post- test design. The demographic Proforma were collected from the adolescent girls by using structured knowledge questionnaire. Data obtained in these areas were analysed using descriptive and inferential statistics. A significant difference between pre test and post test knowledge was found (t79= 2.0 p<0.05).The study findings showed that the structured teaching programme was effective in improving knowledge of adolescent girls regarding polycystic ovarian syndrome. There was no significant association between the level of knowledge and demographic variables except the group in which they study (Science, Arts, Commerce)

Background: Anti-mullerian hormone (AMH) in largely expressed throughout folliculogenisis (by granulosa cells in ovarian follicles) but highest in pre-antral and small antral steges (<4mm) drameter of development.Objective: To analyse the usefulness of plasma anti-mullerian hormone (AMH) measurement as a test for assessing ovarian reserve in Polycystic ovary syndrome with sub fertility,Methodology: Women with PCOS and sub fertility, were included in this study with age group 18-35yrs. This Prospetive cohort study done in 30 cases in ShSMC with purposive randomized sampling, from January 2015 to December 2015. Serum, plasma & for evaluation of PCOS, preferably TV-USG was done.Result: In this study we analyze 30 serum samples from patient aged between 18-35 years and transvaginal ultrasonography was done simultaneously. Mean age group of my patient was 25.2±4.7 years which correlates with AMH level in PCOS which is statistically significant (p<0.001). Mean level of AMH is 5.7±4.9 mg/ml which is also correlate with transvaginal USG scan with the feature of PCOS (p<.0.001). More than 50% woman presents with features of subfertility with PCOS and 46.7% are normal ovaries. Mean menstrual day 7.6 (4-12 days) which have a good linear correlation with irregularities of menstrual cycle and PCOS (p<0.05).Conclusion: To conclude AMH appears to have a major inhibiting role during folliculogenesis, which may contribute to anovulation in PCOS. The reason for the raised AMH in PCOS may give clues as to the mechanism os anovulation.J Shaheed Suhrawardy Med Coll, June 2017, Vol.9(1); 3-5

ABSTRACT Introduction Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is an endocrine disorder affecting all age groups and presenting with myriad problems like menstrual irregularities, hirsutism, anovulatory infertility, and long-term complications like diabetes, cardiovascular problems, etc. Aim Study was aimed at finding the prevalence, characteristics, and various risk factors of metabolic syndrome (MS) in reproductive age group in our hospital. Materials and methods Using statistical table, a sample size of 131 was calculated and patients were recruited as per inclusion criteria. Polycystic ovarian syndrome was diagnosed by the American Society for Reproductive Medicine (ASRM)/European Society of Human Reproduction and Embryology (ESHRE) criteria. After informed consent, a detailed history was obtained and physical examination was carried out to assess, body weight, height, body mass index (BMI), waist—hip ratio (WHR), and blood pressure (BP). Fasting blood glucose, triglycerides, and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) were measured for each woman Results Prevalence of MS in our study was 45.8%; 26.7% of patients had a combination of increased waist circumference, raised triglycerides, and low HDL; 55.2% of patients had a fasting blood sugar (FBS) levels more than 100 mg%. Age of the patient was a statistically significant risk factor of MS with 100% of patients in the age group of 35 to 39 presenting with MC. Body mass index was also a statistically significant risk factor with 82.6% with BMI > 30 having MC. Other important risk factors include a WHR more than 0.95, presence of diabetes in mother or sister, and presence of acanthosis; 71% of patients with WHR more than 0.95 had MC. Age of menarche, duration of menstrual cycles, and hirsutism showed no significant relationship. Conclusion An outstanding fact that emerged in this study was that 94% of women with PCOS had HDL values <50 mg/dL. And 58% had triglycerides more than 150 mg/dL. Hence, lifestyle modification and early intervention will hopefully spare long-term complication of PCOS. How to cite this article Madusudhanan RR, Nambisan B, Brahmanandan M, Radha S.

AbstractA study was done to assess the effectiveness of planned teaching programme (PTP) on polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) among adolescent girls in selected high schools at Mangalore. The main objectives of the study were1. To assess the pre-test level of knowledge regarding PCOS among adolescent girls in Selected high schools at Mangalore.2. To evaluate the effectiveness of Planned Teaching Programme on knowledge regarding Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome among adolescent girls in selected high schools at Mangalore.3. To find the association between the pre-test knowledge score of adolescent girls and selected variables.An evaluatory approach with pre-experimental one group pre-test post-test design was used for the study. The subjects were 100 adolescent girls selected by convenience sampling technique. PTP was administered after the assessment of pre-intervention knowledge on PCOS. Post intervention knowledge was assessed on the 7th day of the administration of PTP through the same structured knowledge questionnaire. The results of this study in general showed, the significant difference between the mean pre-test and posttest knowledge score (t99=7.02, p<0.05).The significant difference was found in between all the areas. There was no association between the pre-test knowledge score and selected demographic variables. Hence it can be concluded that PTP was effective in gaining knowledge of adolescent girls on PCOS. which was evident in post-test knowledge score.

Objective: To determine the effects of Myo- inositol in young females with polycystic ovarian syndrome. Study Design and Setting: This was a quasi-experimental study and was conducted in United Medical and Dental College and Creek General Hospital from January 2017 to January 2018. Methodology: Total 100 patients were recruited based on the specific inclusion criteria of PCO diagnosed by symptoms (body mass index, menstrual irregularity, hirsutism, acne) biochemical markers (fasting insulin, random blood sugar) and ultrasound findings. Each subject in the study group was given sachet (Myo- inositol 2000mg and folic acid 400ug) once a day dissolved in glass of water for duration of 6 months. Improvement in symptoms, biochemical markers and ultrasound findings were reassessed after the completion of 6 months duration. The SPSS version 21 was used for data analysis. The paired T test was used to assess the effects of Myo-Inositol before treatment and after six months of treatment. Result: The significant relation (0.001) was observed between the intervention and PCO and its related symptoms. An evident effect was noticed in each individual after the intervention was provided to them. The relatable symptoms such as irregularities in menses, hirsutism,weight and insulin resistance were reduced by significant ratio. Conclusion: Myo – inositol has proven to be effective in reducing the PCO and its relatable symptoms in young females. Despite the limitations, enough evidence was collected that indicated a significant effect of the intervention
