Popis: Background: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is classically associated with insulin resistance, metabolic syndrome, or type 2 diabetes. Infertile Afrocaribbean (AC) women with PCOS may have metabolic features that could help to better target their management. Objective: To evaluate the characteristics of PCOS in this population and their metabolic profile to target the worst metabolic parameter. Methods: A retrospective study including infertile AC women for 4 years. PCOS was diagnosed using Rotterdam criteria and compared with non-PCOS women referred consecutively for infertility during the same period. Results: Among 981 AC women evaluated for infertility, PCOS was found in 17%. PCOS women were younger than non-PCOS women. After age and body mass index (BMI) matching, only fasting blood glucose and triglyceride levels were higher in PCOS women compared with non-PCOS women. PCOS was positively correlated with triglyceride levels and negatively with vitamin D levels. PCOS women with obesity had low high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol and increased triglyceride levels compared with those without obesity. No correlation was found between lipids or glucose levels and androgen levels. Multivariate analysis showed that only triglycerides were independently related to PCOS after adjustment for age and BMI. Conclusions: In the AC population where the prevalence of obesity and diabetes is increased, the metabolic profile of infertile women with PCOS is mainly characterized by hypertriglyceridemia, with a higher risk of visceral obesity and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease. Interventional studies would be useful to evaluate the predictive value of hypertriglyceridemia on diabetes and cardiovascular diseases in this population.
