Body composition parameters, including body weight, body mass index (BMI), waist circumference (WC), waist to hip ratio (WHR), percent body fat (PBF), visceral fat area (VFA), percent subcutaneous fat (PSF) and skeletal muscle mass (SMM), were measured; levels of fasting glucose, fasting insulin, testosterone, and sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG) were measured; and homeostatic model assessment for insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) values, anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH), free androgen index (FAI), Ferriman-Gallwey (FG) score, adiponectin levels, leptin levels, adiponectin/leptin ratio, LH, FSH and LH/FSH ratio were measured. \u0000Results: Body composition parameters (body weight, BMI, WC, WHR, PBF, VFA, PSF, SMM) were not significantly different between women with PCOS and controls. Fasting insulin (P<0.05), HOMA-IR (P<0.05), AMH (P<0.01), FAI (P<0.01), FG score (P<0.01) and LH/FSH ratio (P<0.05) were higher in PCOS women. Adiponectin (P<0.01) was lower in PCOS women, while leptin and the adiponectin/leptin ratio were not significantly different between groups. Most of body composition parameters, adiponectin, leptin and adiponectin/leptin ratio were correlated with HOMA-IR in both groups. \u0000SMM was positively correlated with the LH/FSH ratio, while body weight, BMI, WC, PBF, VFA, and PSF were inversely correlated with the LH/FSH ratio in PCOS patients but not in controls. WHR was not correlated in either group. Leptin (r=-0.278; P<0.05) was negatively correlated with the LH/FSH ratio only in the PCOS group. Adiponectin (r=0.394; P<0.01) and the adiponectin/leptin ratio (r=0.413; P<0.01) were also positively correlated with the LH/FSH ratio only in the PCOS group. AMH was correlated with the LH/FSH ratio, whereas testosterone level, FAI, FG score, fasting insulin level and HOMA-IR value were not correlated with the LH/FSH ratio in PCOS women. \u0000Conclusion: Most of the body composition parameters, leptin, adiponectin and the adiponectin/leptin ratio were significantly correlated with HOMA-IR in both groups. However, correlations of those parameters with LH/FSH ratio were found only in PCOS but not in women without PCOS. Adiponectin and leptin may play a significant role in the mechanism of neuroendocrine disorders in PCOS, which is characterized by an increased LH/FSH ratio. \u0000Keywords: adiponectin, adiponectin/leptin ratio, body composition, HOMA-IR, leptin, LH/FSH ratio, PCOS","PeriodicalId":13477,"journal":{"name":"Indonesian Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140494411","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Turner syndrome is a chromosomal condition characterized by small height and primary ovarian insufficiency that affects one in every 2500 female births. Mosaicism is likely to occur when monosomy X develops in only a few cells during development. The clinical presentation of Turner syndrome mosaicism is atypical, with symptom severity varying based on the number of affected cells. This case discusses issues with secondary sex development, including mild hyperandrogenism, and explores how combination hormonal treatment can aid in enhancing secondary sex development. \u0000Method: Case Report. \u0000Case: A 21-year-old woman presented with chief complaint of the lack of breast enlargement. She exhibited normal genitalia internally and externally and had a regular menstrual cycle. Karyotyping revealed a mosaic pattern of 45, X/46, XX (1 percent/99%) with normal estradiol levels and elevated testosterone levels (indicating mild hyperandrogenism). The patient underwent two cycles of hormone therapy using Ethinyl Estradiol and Drospirenone, resulting in breast growth progression from Tanner stage 1 to Tanner stage 2. \u0000Conclusion: Mosaicism in Turner syndrome is plausible, and the severity of clinical symptoms correlates with the number of defective chromosomes. The presentation of Turner syndrome mosaicism varies, and therapy should be tailored to address specific symptoms. While breast development is observed in some girls with Turner Syndrome, instances of breast growth disorder may occur, involving estrogen activity and estrogen receptor sensitivity.

The subjects of this study includes pregnant women diagnosed with preterm delivery in Dr. Cipto Mangunkusumo National General Hospital from April 2020 to June 2021.
