چکیده

مقدمه: سندرم تخمدان پلی‌کیستیک (PCOS) با هیپرآندروژنیسم و چاقی ارتباط دارد. مطالعۀ حاضر با هدف مقایسۀ سطح تستوسترون، دهیدرواپی آندرسترون سولفات و شاخص­ های تن­ سنجی بین بیماران مبتلا به PCOS مصرف کننده متفورمین و سیپروترون کامپاند انجام شد.
روشکار: این مطالعه مقطعی- تحلیلی در سال 1401 با مرور مستندات پزشکی شامل سن، شاخص تودۀ بدنی (BMI)، محیط دور کمر (WC)، نسبت دور کمر به دور باسن (WHR)، نسبت دور کمر به قد (WHtR)، سطح سرمی تستوسترون و دی هیدروکسی اپی آندرسترون سولفات قبل و بعد از مصرف دارو به‌مدت 3 ماه انجام شد. 220 شرکت کننده در 4 گروه 55 نفره: 1) مصرف کنندۀ متفورمین 500 میلی‌گرم روزانه، 2) مصرف کنندۀ سیپروترون کامپاند 2 میلی‌گرم روزانه، 3) مصرف کنندۀ همزمان متفورمین و سیپروترون کامپاند به‌طور همزمان و 4) شرکت کنندگان فاقد PCOS به‌عنوان کنترل قرار گرفتند. تجزیه و تحلیل­ داده‌ها با استفاده از نرم‌افزار آماری SPSS (نسخه 25) و آزمون‌های تی زوجی و آنووا انجام شد. میزان p کمتر از 05/0 معنی­ دار در نظر گرفته شد.
یافته ­ها: قبل از مداخله، میانگین سطوح سرمی تستوسترون و دی هیدروکسی اپی‌آندروسترون سولفات در گروه‌های مداخله به‌طور معنی‌داری بالاتر از گروه کنترل فاقد PCOS بود (به‌ترتیب 001/0>p و 005/0=p) که پس از مداخله این اختلاف معنی‌دار نبود (به‌ترتیب 111/0=p و 423/0=p). علاوه بر این، مصرف متفورمین به­ تنهایی باعث افزایش BMI (001/0=p) و WC (001/0=p) و کاهش WHtR (026/0=p) نسبت به گروه کنترل شد. مصرف همزمان داروهای متفورمین و سیپروترون کامپاند با کاهش میانگین WC در مقایسه با گروه کنترل همراه بود (001/0=p).
نتیجه ­گیری: مصرف متفورمین و سیپروترون کامپاند به­ تنهایی یا به­ طور همزمان، اثری بر سطح سرمی آندروژن ها ندارد. تجویز همزمان متفورمین و سیپروترون کامپاند در PCOS ممکن است چاقی شکمی را در بیماران PCOS کاهش دهد.

چکیده [English]

Introduction: Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is associated with hyperandrogenism and obesity. The present study was performed with aim to compare testosterone and dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate serum levels and anthropometric indices between patients with PCOS taking metformin and cyproterone compounds.
Methods: This cross-sectional analytical study was conducted in 2022 was performed by reviewing the medical documents including age, body mass index (BMI), waist circumference (WC), waist-to-hip-ratio (WHR), waist-to-height ratio (WHtR), testosterone serum levels, and dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate before and after taking the drugs for 3 months. Two-hundred and twenty participants were divided in 4 groups (n=55 in each group) as follows: 1) taking metformin 500 mg daily, 2) taking cyproterone compound 2 mg daily, 3) taking metformin and cyproterone compound simultaneously, and 4) participants without PCOS as control. Data were analyzed by SPSS software (version 25) and paired T-test and ANOVA. P<0.05 was consider statistically significant.
Results: Before the intervention, the mean serum levels of testosterone and dihydroxyepiandrosterone sulfate were significantly higher in the intervention groups compared to the control group without PCOS (p<0.001 and p=0.005, respectively). This difference was not significant after the intervention (p=0.111 and p=0.423, respectively). However, taking metformin alone increased BMI (p= 0.001) and WC (p= 0.001) and decreased WHtR (p= 0.026) compared to the control group. Taking metformin and cyproterone compounds simultaneously were associated with a decrease in WC compared to the control group (p= 0.001).
Conclusion: Taking metformin and cyproterone compounds alone or simultaneously has no effect on the androgens serum level. Co-administration of metformin and cyproterone compounds may reduce abdominal obesity in PCOS patients.
