ABSTRACT
Background: Diagnosis of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) in adolescents remains controversial; the 3rd Amsterdam 2012 Workshop con84 Revista Mexicana de Medicina de la Reproducción Volumen 7, Núm. 2, octubre-diciembre 2014 sensus suggests that the three elements of the Rotterdam criteria must be present in adolescents. The metabolic dysfunction is an important part of the associated risks.Objective: To determine that the frequency of polycystic ovary syndrome in adolescents attended at service of Biology of Reproduction (BRH) of Hospital Juarez de Mexico that met the criteria of the proposed 3rd Consensus Workshop Amsterdam 2012 is different than when the 2003 Rotterdam criteria are applied.
Material and method: A cross-sectional study was done from April 2013 to April 2014. The frequency of these two diagnostic criteria and metabolic syndrome between each was studied.
Results: Of the 61 adolescents evaluated, 20 (32.8%) met the proposal of the 3rd Workshop and 41 (67.2%) with those of Rotterdam. In a subgroup of 37 patients regardless of diagnostic criterion, 21.6% (8) had metabolic syndrome, of whom 5 (62.5%) have the Rotterdam criteria, and 3 (37.5%) the proposal of the 3rd Workshop. Pearson correlation was directly significant (p 0.01) between the abdominal circumference and the estimation model of insulin resistance (HOMA) in the group evaluated for metabolic syndrome.
Conclusions: The frequency of polycystic ovary syndrome in adolescents attended at Biology of Reproduction service of Hospital Juarez de Mexico is different depending on the diagnostic criteria used, with more adolescents diagnosed with Rotterdam 2003 criteria (67.2%) than with the proposal of the 3rd Consensus Workshop Amsterdam 2012 (32.8%). Well-designed studies are proposed with the objective of determining the metabolic implications of these results.
