Background: With specific symptomatology and clinical presentation, the validity of standard quality of life assessment scales is questionable for polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) women.
Aim: The aim of the study was to translate and validate the Hindi version of the PCOS-related Quality of Life (PCOSQOL) scale into culturally adaptable, screening tool for Indian women with PCOS.
Settings And Design: A cross-sectional study was conducted in the outpatient department of a tertiary care hospital.
Objective: To study the impact of updated international diagnostic criteria for follicle number per ovary (FNPO) on diagnosis of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and phenotype classification among Asian-Indian women. Also, to compare the low FNPO and high FNPO groups in terms of clinical, anthropometric, endocrine, and metabolic parameters.
Methods: This was a cross-sectional study conducted at a tertiary care referral center.
Robert's Uterus-Types, Diagnosis, and Management Options: Case Series and Review of Literature.
J Obstet Gynaecol India
April 2025
Objective: To report three cases of Robert's uterus and to describe the types, diagnostic methods, and management options for this rare Mullerian anomaly.
Methods: Three adolescent girls presented with progressive severe dysmenorrhea since menarche. Two girls had undergone inappropriate surgeries due to misdiagnosis in past which did not relieve their symptoms.
Diagnostic and management dilemmas of pregnancies at the utero-tubal junction: A case series and management algorithm.
Int J Gynaecol Obstet
October 2024
Article Synopsis
- The study focuses on four cases of rare ectopic pregnancies occurring at the utero-tubal junction, highlighting the potential for severe maternal complications if these cases go undetected.
- All four cases had different presentations, requiring distinct approaches for diagnosis, where initial 2D transvaginal scans were inadequate, and 3D transvaginal scans provided better localization of the gestational sacs.
- The findings emphasized the importance of 3D imaging in managing these complex ectopic pregnancies and introduced a diagnostic algorithm and management strategies tailored to each case type.
Article Synopsis
- - The study focuses on assessing the effectiveness of two metrics, the visceral adiposity index (VAI) and lipid accumulation product (LAP), in identifying metabolic health in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), who are at risk of conditions like diabetes and cardiovascular disease due to insulin resistance and hyperandrogenism.
- - The research involved evaluating 200 women with PCOS, categorizing them into metabolically healthy (MH-PCOS) and unhealthy (MU-PCOS) groups, and examining the correlation of VAI and LAP with various metabolic and endocrine markers.
- - Results indicated that both VAI and LAP are reliable predictors for distinguishing between MH-PCOS and MU-PCOS, demonstrating high sensitivity levels, which
Article Synopsis
- * Results showed that the most common genotype among fertile women was GG (Ser/Ser), while infertile women had an equal distribution of all genotypes, and there were no significant differences in IVF performance metrics like ovarian response and live birth rates among the different genotype groups.
- * The study concludes that while the GG genotype may have a lower risk of poor egg yield, the overall impact of FSH-R polymorphisms on ART outcomes is
Background: The purpose of the current study was to evaluate patient-oriented strategies encompassing individualized oocyte number (POSEIDON) criteria, validate stratification of low prognosis women, and prognosticate their reproductive potential in terms of cumulative live birth rate (CLBR) in Indian women.
Methods: Out of 4048 women who underwent IVF/ICSI, 3287 women met the criteria for final evaluation of CLBR. They criteria were divided into (a) group 1a as cases with <4 oocytes retrieved and 1b with 4-9 oocytes retrieved; (b) group 2a as cases with <4 oocytes retrieved and 2b with 4-9 oocytes retrieved; (c) group 3 (<35 years, AMH <1.
This case report highlights the diagnostic dilemma and therapeutic challenges encountered while managing adolescent girls with progressive dysmenorrhoea and management of Robert's uterus. Two girls aged 20 years and 13 years presented with severe progressive dysmenorrhoea. In the first case, laparoscopy revealed juvenile cystic adenomyoma (JCA) of 3 cm × 3 cm on the left side anteroinferior to the round ligament.

The present study evaluated the serum AMH levels among different PCOS phenotypes and correlated the AMH levels with clinical, hormonal, and metabolic parameters among Indian PCOS women. Mean serum AMH was 12.

Case Presentation: A 17-year-old girl presented with complaints of primary amenorrhea, phenotypical features of Turner syndrome with left inguinal hernia and severe hypertension.
Objective: To assess the psychological impact of suspension/postponement of various fertility treatments on infertile women during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic.
Methods: This was a cross-sectional study conducted as an online survey among infertile women consulting either through teleconsultation or physical consultation at a fertility clinic of a tertiary care referral unit. A validated questionnaire was given as a WhatsApp link to the women who were consulting for the resumption of services.
