多囊性卵巢症候群是一項常見的婦科疾病,常導致諸多荷爾蒙失調的症狀,尤其其引起之不孕症,影響了4-10%生育年齡的婦女。此症候群臨床上常呈現雄性激素血中濃度增高,排卵能力降低,寡經,身體和面部毛髮增生,青春痘,以及多囊性卵巢的情況。此外,也可能造成代謝性的荷爾蒙失調,與胰島素阻抗症。多囊性卵巢症候群之致病機轉至今仍未清楚,但觀察到此症候群常與不孕症,第二型糖尿病,心血管疾病,以及子宮內膜癌的發生有關。此外,也有一些研究表明,多囊性卵巢症候群的發生率可能因種族以及性傾向而不同。然而,此症候群的患病率與特定性傾向族群之關係,目前仍付之闕如。因此,在本研究中,我們嘗試探索性傾向以及多囊性卵巢症候群在臨床上相關之危險因子的關聯。
在本研究中,我們採取橫斷面研究方法,自台北醫學大學婦產科門診病患中招募受試者。總共有177例受試者參與了本研究。我們發現,在多囊性卵巢症候群的患者中,相較異性戀婦女族群,性傾向為女同性戀者顯著具有較高的身體質量指數(BMI= 22.5±5.2 v.s. 26.2±1.9; p=0.031),並且有較高的家族糖尿病史比例 (85.7% v.s. 64.4%)。這暗示了女同性戀族群可能是多囊性卵巢症候群相關的糖尿病之高危險性族群。
本研究探討多囊性卵巢症候群之相關因子與性傾向之關聯性,有助於了解多囊性卵巢症候群是否於女同性戀族群中有更高的發生率,以及其可能的原因。本研究成果將有助於臨床上針對女同性戀的多囊性卵巢症候群患者進行更有效的疾病預防與治療。
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is the most common endocrine disorder, affecting 4-10% of reproductive-aged women worldwide. The clinical diagnostic criteria for PCOS include androgen excess (either clinical or biochemical), anovulation, and polycystic ovaries (PCO) as observed by ultrasound. Hence, the clinical signs and symptoms of PCOS are related to hormonal imbalances, lack of ovulation and insulin resistance, leading to consequences of: irregular or absent menstrual periods, excessive growth of body and facial hair, adult acne, PCO, metabolic syndrome, and endometrial cancer. The exact cause of PCOS is unclear; it is considered a complex genetic disease that is often associated with infertility, type II diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and endometrial cancer. There are a few studies that have indicated that the prevalence and features of PCOS may vary by race and sexual orientation. However, studies on the connection between the prevalence of polycystic ovary syndrome and sexual orientation have been the subject of relatively little health research. In this study, we aim to explore the association between sexual orientation and PCOS-related parameters.
A cross-sectional study method with participants recruited from the regular outpatient clinic at the department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at Taipei Medical University Hospital was carried out. A total of 177 patients participated in the study. We found that patients with PCOS who identified themselves as lesbians (with regard to sexual orientation) tended to possess higher body mass index (26.2±1.9 v.s. 22.5±5.2; p=0.031) and higher rate of DM family background (85.7% v.s. 64.4%) than the women in the study with PCOS that identified themselves as heterosexuals. Our data indicated that high BMI was associated with sexual orientation (as evidenced by the results of lesbian PCO women in Taiwan), and may cause women who identify themselves as lesbians to be more vulnerable to PCOS-related DM. As health risks related to hormonal imbalances may be underestimated in the homosexual population due to cultural factors, the results could help to identify a potential high risk population to PCOS, and contribute to women’s health care in the future.
