Metabolic syndrome and polycystic ovary syndrome and vice versa Kandaraki E; Christakou C; Diamanti-Kandarakis EArq Bras Endocrinol Metabol 2009[Mar]; 53 (2): 227-37The metabolic syndrome (MS) and the polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) appear to be interrelated, although they are distinct entities. Women with PCOS appear to be commonly affected by MS, while women with MS may display reproductive or endocrine features of PCOS. These clinical observations appear to be only partly attributable to the association of both syndromes with obesity and imply a reciprocal pathophysiologic relationship between PCOS and MS with potentially significant clinical sequelae. Adult women with MS are at a greater risk of developing cardiovascular disease; women with PCOS also appear to carry such an increased risk in their postmenopausal life. Conversely, women with MS may experience reproductive disturbances, reminiscent of PCOS, more commonly than their counterparts from the general population. This review presented the current epidemiology of MS in adults and adolescents with PCOS, as well as the limited amount of data on the prevalence of features of PCOS among women with MS or MS features. We also discuss the potential pathophysiologic mechanisms underlying the relationship between these interweaving, but distinct, syndromes.|Adolescent[MESH]|Adult[MESH]|Cardiovascular Diseases/etiology[MESH]|Epidemiologic Studies[MESH]|Female[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Metabolic Syndrome/complications/*epidemiology/physiopathology[MESH]|Polycystic Ovary Syndrome/complications/*epidemiology/physiopathology[MESH]|Postmenopause[MESH]|Prevalence[MESH] |
