It is particularly prevalent among adolescent females who receive an insufficient diagnosis despite having potentially adverse consequences. The use of PCOS screening questionnaires has the potential to aid in the early detection of symptoms. The goal of this study is to observe if a self-administered questionnaire may be useful for a clear cognizance of the associated conditions like mental stress and menstrual characteristics correlated to polycystic ovary syndrome. In this study, we selected women within an age group of 17-40 with and without PCOS based on the modified Rotterdam criteria to fill out a self-administrated questionnaire based on the signs and symptoms of PCOS majorly focusing on mental stress and menstrual characteristics. SPSS software, univariate analyses were employed to elucidate the associations among the components of PCOS, demographic factors, and lifestyle characteristics, hence providing insights into the interrelationships among those variables. 64 women with PCOS and 141 women without PCOS participated in the present study. The present study revealed PCOS is greatly influenced by age at menarche (<i>p</i>-value= .043), typical cycle length (<i>p</i>-value = .000) mental health problems during menstruation (<i>p</i>-value = .032), and body mass index (<i>p</i>-value = .001). Multivariate hierarchical logistic regression analysis showed only 2 variables BMI (a-OR 1.156,95% CI (1.067-1.242), <i>p</i>-value = .000), and typical cycle length (a-OR 2.278, 95% CI (1.079-4.809), p-value = .003) were significant. The present study showed that BMI and menstrual cycle length were most closely associated with the incidence of PCOS, which is important in diagnosing and treating the condition. Considering the high incidence of PCOS among women of reproductive age and its potential for significant health implications, it would be prudent to incorporate inquiries regarding mental health concerns and menstrual patterns into routine medical assessments for this demographic analysis. This approach aims to ascertain whether additional diagnostic evaluations and screenings for PCOS are warranted.</p>","PeriodicalId":50072,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Psychosomatic Obstetrics & Gynecology","volume":"45 1","pages":"2297166"},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2024-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139040820","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Longitudinal studies addressing the prevalence of psychological distress, anxiety, or psychosexual health during follow-up in patients diagnosed with borderline ovarian tumors are lacking. This study explores this prevalence compared with controls who underwent comparable surgical treatment for benign ovarian tumors. A prospective 1:1 nonmatched case-control study was set up, registered on ClinicalTrials.gov under number NCT04253327. Thirty early stage borderline ovarian tumor patients participated, and 30 controls were included. The study materials consisted of different questionnaires. A general one on patient's sociodemographic and medical information. A questionnaire about anxiety and distress made up of three validated questionnaires: Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale, Perceived Stress Scale and Body Image Scale. As last one the psychosexual health questionnaire consisted of the Female Sexual Function Index, the Female Sexual Distress Scale and two European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer questionnaires. Both groups were comparable and did not differ significantly in terms of demographic characteristics. Patients with early stage borderline ovarian tumors experience a significant higher burden of mental health issues due to disease and treatment and/or are more worried about their future health. Surprisingly, both early stage borderline ovarian tumor patients and controls showed high levels of anxiety and moderate stress. Many patients in both groups experience sexual dysfunction and distress. These findings support active screening for anxiety, depression and psychosexual perturbance during postoperative follow-up to accommodate this.</p>","PeriodicalId":50072,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Psychosomatic Obstetrics & Gynecology","volume":"45 1","pages":"2404010"},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2024-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142299780","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Globally, PPD is estimated to be associated with 130-190 per 1000 birthing. The severity and incidences of PPD have aggravated in the recent years due to the several unfavorable environmental and geopolitical circumstances. The purpose of this systematic review hence is to explore the contributions of recent circumstances on the pathogenesis and incidence of PPD. The search, selection and retrieval of the articles published during the last three years were systematically performed. The results from the primary studies indicate that unfavorable contemporary socio-geopolitical and environmental circumstances (e.g. Covid-19 pandemic, political conflicts/wars, and natural calamities; such as floods and earthquakes) detrimentally affect PPD etiology. A combination of socio-economic and psychological factors, including perceived lack of support and anxiousness about the future may contribute to drastic aggravation of PPD incidences. Finally, we outline some of the potential treatment regimens (e.g. inter-personal psycho- and art-based therapies) that may prove to be effective in amelioration of PPD-linked symptoms in birthing women, either alone or in complementation with traditional pharmacological interventions. We propose these psychological and art-based intervention strategies may beneficially counteract the negative influences of the unfortunate recent events across multiple cultures, societies and geographical regions.</p>","PeriodicalId":50072,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Psychosomatic Obstetrics & Gynecology","volume":"44 1","pages":"2278016"},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2023-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138488936","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
