Background: Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) accounts for significant healthcare costs, emotional distress and significant impact on quality of life of women. Even though a fairly common problem it is a complex trait with unclear etiology. The present study was conducted to study various clinical presentations in the adolescent girls with polycystic ovarian syndrome having menstrual irregularities. Aims and Objectives: To study the anthropometric measurements among PCOS patients and to find the association of various risk factors. Material and Methods: It was an observational, cross-sectional study conducted in Out-patient department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at a tertiary healthcare center in Maharashtra. This study was conducted amongst the adolescent girls coming to the OPD of Obstetrics and Gynecology with irregular menses. Results: We evaluated the study subjects according to the Rotterdam’s criteria. We observed that 51.96% cases fulfilled two of the three criteria, while 29.13% cases fulfilled all the three criteria from Rotterdam’s criteria for PCOS. Oligomenorrhea was noted among 46.45% subjects, followed by hypomenorrhea among 32.28% cases. Primary amenorrhea was observed among 21.25% cases. Secondary amenorrhea was seen as the presenting symptom in 4.72% cases. Conclusions: Adolescents who had irregular menses and signs of increased androgen secretion should undergo investigations and must be treated. Prompt treatment following early diagnosis of PCOS helps improve quality of life in young adolescent girls.Keywords
