To Compare the Maternal Outcome in Normal and Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome

Background: polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) in the present generation is a very common reproductive disorder and the prevalence is on the rise. In this study we compare the maternal outcome in normal and women with PCOS. Methods: This study was a case-control study on pregnant women with h/o PCOS from 5-28 weeks of pregnancy. Results: 9.49% women developed GDM in cases as compared to 1.61% women in control group. The difference in the incidence of GDM in the two groups was statistically significant. When hypertensive disorders of pregnancy were considered, a statistically significant difference was observed as 11.2% cases and 2.42% controls showed HDP. Conclusion: With a detailed comparative analysis of this case-control study, it can be concluded that many antenatal complications are per se increased in women with a history of PCOS.
