Sponsor's own description

Although PCOS has been known for many years, its etiology and treatment are not clearly known. The prevalence of PCOS varies between populations. It is a familial endocrinolpathology with a chronic course, multifactorial, polygenic feature seen with an average prevalence of 6-8% in women in the reproductive period.Chronic inflammation is involved in the pathophysiology of many chronic diseases. PCOS, which is a proinflammatory condition, has been associated with insulin resistance and hyperandrogenism in previous studies. Omega-3 fatty acids have anti-inflammatory, anti-thrombotic, anti-arrhythmic properties, reducing lipid levels such as serum triglyceride and LDL cholesterol, and having positive effects on the immune system. Therefore, their deficiencies include fatigue, joint pain, frequent infections, etc. is seen. Omega-6 fatty acids have the opposite effect. DHA is a member of the omega-3 fatty acids family. Dietary components play an important role in chronic inflammation. According to our literature review, there is no study that detects docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) levels in blood and cervical mucus samples in patients with PCOS. We think that we will contribute to the diagnosis and treatment processes of PCOS patients by detecting DHA levels in this study. In this study, we aim to compare the values of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) in serum and cervical mucus samples in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome with the control group.
