Abstract
Introduction : Almost 6.5–8% women of the reproductive age (18–45 years) suffer what is currently acknowledged as polycystic ovary disorder (PCOS), a perplexing sickness related with persistent an ovulation, hyperandrogenism, and various ovarian sores as trademark highlights .Wholesome changes because of a westernized diet and inactive way of life have brought about metabolic wellbeing unsettling influences affecting the metropolitan spaces of non-industrial countries like India and China, prompting a higher commonness of PCOS, roughly 9.13% to 36% in India and 2% to 7.5% in China.
Materials And Method: The study was conducted in a University setting. The subjects in the age group of 15- 45 years of age with PCOS were included in the present study. The sample size for the present study was 20 subjects with PCOS were selected from the outpatient visits to Saveetha Dental College & Hospital from November 2020 to February 2021. Subjects with systemic disease, subjects who were on medication for systemic diseases. The subjects were divided into two groups containing 20 subjects
Results: Figure 1 represents the association between modified gingival index for healthy and pcos women . The X-axis represents the modified gingival index and Y-axis represents the age group between 15-50 years . Blue colour represents healthy women and Green colour represents pcos women . With the mean score of modified gingival index 0.61were healthy women and 1.36 were pcos women . However this is statistically not significant with chi-square value - 21.42 and p-value = 0.3 (p-value > 0.05) hence insignificant.
Discussion: The present study was carried out on a total number of 40 women (20—healthy; 20—PCOS) with an age range of 15 to 45 years. The mean age in the PCOS group was 26.13 + 4.49 years, and in the healthy group 23.53 + 3.96 years. Most women belonged to a semi-urban locality with good female literacy levels. Hence, only BMI was assessed and socioeco- nomic considerations were not taken into account. The BMI was significantly higher for women in the PCOS group [23.83 ± 2.49] compared to healthy controls [22.50 ± 2.24].
Conclusion: Within the limitations of the present study, it can be con- cluded that relatively greater gingival inflammation was observed in patients with PCOS compared to healthy controls, independent of the risk factors present.
