Abstract

Background: The most prevalent endocrine condition affecting women in their reproductive years, polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) affects 4–12% of the general population. Amenorrhea, infertility, hyperandrogenism, hyperinsulinemia, and metabolic syndrome are all linked to it. Patients with this illness should be properly monitored and given the proper diagnosis as soon as possible, since the underlying pathology may put them at risk for further comorbidities.
Aim of the Work: to assess the relationship between ovarian reserve elements and thyroid issues.
Patients and Methods: The purpose of this cross-sectional study was to assess the relationship between thyroid diseases and ovarian reserve tests. Two hundred participants with PCOS were enrolled in this study based on the Rotterdam Criteria 2004.
Results: Serum TSH and FSH levels showed a statistically significant positive linear minor association. In contrast, there was a linear association between LH and TSH that was not statistically significant. There is a statistically significant linear negative link between TSH serum level and AFC, while AMH and TSH serum level similarly exhibit a statistically significant negative linear correlation.
Conclusion: Thyroid dysfunction may be present to some extent in the majority of PCOS patients. Thyroid autoimmunity should be examined along with the evaluation of ovarian reserve.
