Abstract
AIMS AND OBJECTIVES: To assess the status of inflammation in patients with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) and to assess the influence of drugs prescribed for PCOS on inflammation. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Patients were divided into three groups as healthy volunteers, newly diagnosed PCOS patients, already on treatment patients for PCOS. hs-CRP, IL-6 and IL-18 were assessed. RESULTS: There was an increase in the hs-CRP, IL-6 and IL-18 compared to healthy volunteers in both newly diagnosed and already diagnosed groups. But there was no statistical significance (hs-CRP=0.975, IL-6=0.746, IL-18 = 0.148) between them. The mean values has decreased in the already on treatment group as duration of treatment increases. There was no statistical significance between them. CONCLUSIONS: There was an inversely proportional relationship between the mean values of inflammatory markers and duration of treatment.
