| Popis: | Objective There have been few studies on hematological parameters (e.g., hemoglobin, red cell distribution width, white blood cells, and mean platelet volume), and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). This study aimed to compare hematological parameters between women with PCOS and controls. Methods We performed an age-matched case–control study in Faisal bin Mishal Center for Infertility, Buraidah (Kingdom of Saudi Arabia). The cases were women with PCOS and an equal number of healthy women were enrolled as controls. The basic gynecological history was recorded and blood samples were analyzed for blood parameters using an automated hematology analyzer. Results The two groups (60 women in each arm of the study) were similar in age. However, body mass index was significantly higher in women with PCOs compared with controls. There were no significant differences in any of the hematological parameters (hemoglobin, red blood cells, red cell distribution width, white blood cells, platelets, and mean platelet volume) between the two groups. Conclusion There does not appear to be a significant difference in hematological parameters in Saudi women with PCOS and healthy controls. A larger study on this issue is required in the future. |
