Popis: | To determine depression symptoms and quality of life in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).The data were collected using the Participant Information Form, PCOS Quality of Life Questionnaire (PCOSQ-50), and Beck Depression Inventory (BDI). The study was conducted with 131 women.The average BDI score was found to be lower in women with PCOS who perceived their income as sufficient (p = 0.033) and who worked (p = 0.003) and was found to be higher in the participants who had hirsutism (p = 0.008) and acne (p = 0.045). The PCOSQ-50 average score was 178.15 ± 27.27 in women without depression symptoms and 139.14 ± 31.33 in women with depression symptoms. The PCOSQ-50 total score was higher in women without depressive symptoms (p = 0.000).Healthcare professionals should evaluate depression symptom levels using standard measurement tools and provide appropriate counseling. |
