Overview
PCOS may be classified into 4 types based upon severity of symptoms into asymptomatic form, mild form, classical form and metabolic form. In 2003 a consensus workshop sponsored by ESHRE/ASRM in Rotterdam indicated PCOS to be present if 2 out of 3 of the following present oligoovulation and/or anovulation, excess androgen activity and polycystic ovaries (by gynecologic ultrasound), and other causes of PCOS are excluded.[1] [2]
Classification
PCOS may be classified into 4 types based upon severity of symptoms into[2]
- Asymptomatic form: Women with only poly cystic ovarian morphology
- Mild form: Poly cystic ovarian morphology along with anovulation
- Classical form: Hyperandogenism along with ovarian dysfunction (anovulation and / or poly cystic ovarian )
- Metabolic form: Combination of mild and classical forms with presence of obesity and/or insulin resistance (abdominal obesity, insülin resistance, raised waist / hip ratio)
