The effect of polycystic ovary syndrome history on neonatal anogenital distance: a prospective study in Turkish population
Abstract
Aim: Embryonic anogenital length depends on fetal sex and testosterone. Children of women with a history of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) who became pregnant may have different anogenital lengths due to hyperandrogenemia. Therefore, the aim of this study was to compare the anogenital lengths of male and female newborns of women with and without a history of PCOS.
Material and Method: The study was designed prospectively. Pregnant women with PCOS and control group who gave birth at term (≥37-42 weeks) between March 2019 and March 2020 in University of Health Sciences, Tepecik Training and Research Hospital, Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology were included in this study.
Results: A total of 119 patients, including 21 mothers with PCOS and female newborns, 35 mothers with female newborns in the control group, 21 mothers with PCOS and male newborns and 42 mothers with male newborns in the control group, were included in this prospective study. Anogenital distance-anus fourchette (AGD-AF) measurement was significantly higher in the female newborns from mother with PCOS than in the female newborns from control group (18.1±2.5 vs. 14.1±1.6, p=0.046). Also, AGD-AF was 20.3±3.5 in the PCOS with hirsutism group and 15.2±1.5 in the PCOS without hirsutism group, and the difference between them was statistically significant (p=0.041).
Conclusion: The anogenital distance may change in female newborns in the presence of maternal PCOS. Considering that AGD reflects fetal testosterone exposure, the findings may reflect increased testosterone exposure in female fetuses of pregnant women with PCOS. The results pave the way for new studies.
