Table 2. Clinical characteristics of PCOS patients and control subjects.
Variable | Control (n=94) | PCOS patients (n=95) | p-value |
Age (years) | 21.0± 3 | 22.0± 9.0 | 0.015* |
BMI (kg/m2 | 22.7± 5.9 | 24.56± 7.34 | 0.003** |
LH (IU/ml) | 5.7± 5.7 | 9.0± 8.7 | 0.001** |
FSH (IU/ml) | 4.6± 2.6 | 4.8± 2.4 | 0.339 |
LH/FSH ratio | 1.2± 1.5 | 1.9± 1.6 | 0.001** |
AMH (ng/ml) | 2.3± 1.4 | 4.8± 4.76 | <0.0001*** |
The values are expressed as median ± IQR, p-values were calculated using the Mann-Whitney test for non-normal distribution data. p-value <0.05 is statistically significant. BMI: body mass index; LH: luteinizing hormone; FSH: follicle stimulating hormone; AMH: anti-Mullerian hormone. *p<0.05, **p<0.01, ***p<0.001 |
