We found an independent association of T2DM FHx with central fat accumulation, obesity, prediabetes, metabolic syndrome (MS), insulin resistance, low HDL and elevated blood pressure (<em>P</em><0.05 for all). PCOS FHx was independently associated with prediabetes (<em>P</em><0.05). We observed an independent association of PCOS FHx with clinical and biochemical hyperandrogenism (<em>P</em><0.05 for all), whereas there was no independent association of T2DM FHx with hyperandrogenism. PCOS women with a positive FHx of both T2DM and PCOS had an adverse metabolic and endocrine profile including a linear increase in risk of obesity, central fat accumulation, MS, prediabetes and low HDL (<em>P</em><0.05 for all).</p></div><div id="" class="section"><h3 class="abstractTitle text-title my-1" id="d5e24">Conclusions</h3><p>Our findings suggest that the assessment of FHx might allow risk stratification of PCOS women, which is important considering the high prevalence of PCOS.</p></div></section> |
