Introduction: Cervical incompetence is one of the major causes of miscarriage and preterm labor, and on the other hand, Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is a chronic endocrine disorder and the most common cause of anovulatory infertility. Therefore, the present review study aimed to determine the role of polycystic ovary syndrome in increasing the risk of cervical insufficiency in pregnant women.
Methods: In this review study, a comprehensive search was conducted in Web of Science, SID, Scopus, and PubMed databases without any time limitation using English keywords Polycystic Ovary Syndrome, Uterine Cervical Incompetence, Incompetent Cervices, and Persian keywords. Original and research articles with relevant content and full text were included in the study. The Strobe and Consort checklists were used to evaluate the studies.
Result: In total, 12 eligible articles out of 1276 articles were selected for this study. According to the results of the studies, 8 articles indicate that the prevalence of cervical incompetence during pregnancy is higher in individuals with PCOS. Elevated androgen levels, higher serum relaxin levels, and the use of assisted reproductive technologies are associated factors with the higher prevalence of cervical incompetence during pregnancy in these women.
Conclusion: Given these results, close surveillance of cervical changes during the second trimester in women with PCOS is necessary to reduce the risk of miscarriage and prevent preterm labor due to cervical incompetence.
