Correlation of ovarian volume and clinical and laboratory parameters of PCOS in Korean patients

Background: The aim of this study is to analyze the correlation ovarian volume and clinical laboratory parameters polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) in Korean women. Methods: Two hundred thirty-three patients aged between 20 40 years with PCOS diagnosis January 2014 June 2020 at Pusan National University Hospital, Busan, Republic Korea, were included retrospective observational using previously recorded patient medical charts. was diagnosed according revised 2003 Rotterdam criteria. Laboratory tests including anti-mullerian hormone (AMH), prolactin, thyroid stimulating (TSH), follicle (FSH), luteinizing (LH), estradiol, free total testosterone, dehydroepiandrosterone-sulfate (DHEA-S), 17-alpha-hydroxyprogesterone (17-OHP), HbA1C insulin conducted. Results: analysis showed that testosterone (p = 0.006, r 0.215), < 0.001, 0.305), 17-OHP 0.008, 0.203) height 0.173) statistically correlated overall patients. In these patients, serum AMH level positively LH but negatively body weight mass index (BMI). Conclusions: According results, volume, quantified by ultrasonographic measurements, significantly related increasing levels
