RESUMO
OBJECTIVE:
To determine the ultrasonographic and lipid changes in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) according to the type of hormonal treatment. STUDYDESIGN:
Thirty-two women with clinical and ultrasonographic diagnosis of PCOS were studied and randomly distributed in one or another treatment group. Group I chlormadinone (2 mg/day for 5 days every month) (n = 16) and Group II ethinylestradiol 35 micrograms plus desogestrel 150 mg (21 days every month) (n = 16). At baseline and at third month a pelvic ultrasound was done to assess the number and size of follicles, also total cholesterol and triglycerides were measured.RESULTS:
In both groups a significant decrease was found in the number of follicles in both ovaries, but only in group II there was a significant decrease in follicular size in both ovaries. No differences were found between the groups in the number of follicles or in the final follicular size. In both groups, a significant decrease was found in total cholesterol levels, without changes in triglycerides levels.CONCLUSION:
Only combined therapy decreased follicular size. So the type of treatment should be based on patient expectations such as sexual activity, or for control of androgen excess.
