ABSTRACT
In 1935 during a medical meeting behalf in New Orleans was presents
a study that included seven cases of women that suffered menstrual
dysfunctions, hirsutism and sterility, for laparotomy the description of
the ovaries had a pearly white color and it was hypertrophic, the cuneiform
resection in both ovaries resulted in correction of the menstrual
dysfunction and two of them got pregnancy later on, receiving the
name of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). The technological advance
facilitates the hormonal analyses demonstrating the hyperandrogenism
existence and the mechanism of the anovulation, the PCOS showed poliquisto
be heterogeneous, reason why it was hindered to define it, this advanced
the current trend to question the existence of the PCOS and to
accept the convenience, either to change the name or to redefine it,
leaving it as a simple syndrome with several phenotypes. The endocrine
component includes abnormal secretion of insulin and consequently
outlying resistance to this hormone, likewise is hyperandrogenism,
dislipoproteinemia and obesity. The hormonal exams are unnecessary
for the diagnostic and treatment; it is convenient to demonstrate for
sonography the ovarian growth. Other dysfunctions like the congenital
suprarenal hyperplasia, hyperprolactinemia and hypotiroidism should
be discarded. The treatment should be individualized with relationship
to the reason of the consultation and the patients age. It has not been
demonstrated that the sensibilitizers use to the insulin avoids long
term cardiovascular illness and diabetes. Therefore, the phenotype is
heterogeneous with a fickle metabolic component and for it has arisen
the restlessness of a better definition of the SPO.
