dc.description.abstractIntroduction: In the current study we aimed to determine body image, self-esteem and depressive symptomatology in women with Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and compare with healthy controls. Method: This study was conducted among the patients with untreated PCOS who admitted to the Outpatient Clinic of Gynecology and Obstetrics of Faculty of Medicine of Selcuk University. A total 83 consecutive women with PCOS met the criteria of present study were included in the study. Age matched healthy controls (n=64) were recruited from employees at Selcuk University Hospital. PCOS was defined according to Rotterdam criteria. After socio-demographic characteristics of the participants were recorded, Body Image Scale, Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale and Beck Depression Inventory were completed by the participants. Results: Patients with PCOS and healthy controls did not differ in some socio-demographic variables, including age, education and economic status (p>0.05). Previous psychiatric history was more prevalent among the PCOS group (p<0.05). Body mass index (BMI) was <= 25 kg/m(2) in both groups. BMI values in the PCOS group were significantly higher than in the controls (p<0.05). BDI scores were significantly higher in the PCOS group compared to that in the healthy controls (p<0.05). There was no significant difference between the PCOS group and healthy controls in BIS and RSES scores (p>0.05). Conclusion: The present study suggests that PCOS seems to be associated with depressive symptomatology. Furthermore, rising BMI values of these women may be an indicator for the onset of PCOS. However, these results should be confirmed by prospective studies.en_US
