Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) has been shown to cause a reduction in quality of life. This study examines the extent of different PCOS
symptoms on quality-of-life, psychosocial well-being and sexual
satisfaction. In a study to compare the complete metabolic, hormonal,
clinical and psychosocial data obtained from a total of 120 women with PCOS and 50 healthy women to establish reductions in quality-of-life and emotional well-being, posted in PubMed, showed that PCOS patients
showed significant reductions in quality-of-life, increased
psychological disturbances, and decreased sexual satisfaction when
compared with healthy controls. BMI and hirsutism scores, but not the
presence of acne, were associated with physical aspects of
quality-of-life and sexual satisfaction. No clear effect of androgens or
insulin resistance on psychosocial variables was detected. Similarly,
the type of menstrual cycle disturbances or infertility had no impact on psychological well-being.
