Polycystic ovarian disease (PCOD) is a common endocrinopathy in women of reproductive age. Its molecular causes remain to be fully defined. Hyperinsulinemia and hyperandrogenism are positively correlated, which suggests that insulin resistance may be involved in the pathogenesis of PCOD.

Cardiovascular disease and ovarian function
Current Opinion in Obstetrics & Gynecology, 2011Coronary heart disease (CHD) is the leading cause of death in the aging female population in the developed world. Ovarian endocrinology plays an important role in modulating a woman's CHD risk. We herein present an overview of our current understanding of CHD risk profile in the context of ovarian physiology and senescence.Endogenous ovarian estrogen ...

BJOG: An International Journal of Obstetrics & Gynaecology, 1976
SummarySex hormone binding globulin (SHBG) capacity was reduced in 9 of 31 patients with polycystic ovarian (PCO) disease and the mean level in PCO patients was significantly less (p<0·001) than normal. Serum testosterone levels were elevated in 21 of 32 PCO patients and the mean level was significantly elevated (p<0·001).

Ovarian cancer is a heterogeneous disease
Cancer Genetics and Cytogenetics, 2005The purpose of this study was to systematically evaluate the molecular profiles of different histologic types of epithelial ovarian cancer before the disease has metastasized beyond the ovary. Stage 1 epithelial ovarian cancers were chosen for analysis of early genetic events associated with different cell types.

Ovarian hormones and vascular disease
Current Opinion in Cardiology, 2013Observational studies have shown benefit of hormone therapy, particularly estrogen, in women who begin treatment in the perimenopausal/early postmenopausal period, whereas randomized controlled trials of such therapy in older postmenopausal women have reported harm.

Management of ovarian disease in pregnancy
Best Practice & Research Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2011The ovary is a complex structure that is responsible for maintaining the endocrine support for a pregnancy during the first trimester until the placenta is sufficiently developed to assume this role. Most ovarian disorders of pregnancy actually relate to pre-existing ovarian conditions such as polycystic ovary syndrome and premature ovarian ...

Endocrine Effects of Ovarian Electrocautery in Patients with Polycystic Ovarian Disease
Obstetrical & Gynecological Survey, 1987Summary. The mechanism by which ovarian electrocautery induces regular ovulatory cycles was studied in 16 women with polycystic ovarian disease (PCO) and compared with 25 normal fertile women who were undergoing sterilization by tubal electrocautery.

Ovarian reserve is preserved in Behçet's disease
International Journal of Rheumatic Diseases, 2015AbstractAimTo compare ovarian reserve with anti‐müllerian hormone (AMH) levels, antral follicle counts (AFCs) and ovarian volume in patients with Behçet's disease (BD) and healthy subjects.MethodThis study included 35 women with BD (mean age: 34.4 ± 5.3 years) and 35 healthy controls (mean age: 34.1 ± 6.0 years).

Familial Polycystic Ovarian Disease
Endocrinology and Metabolism Clinics of North America, 1988Emphasis is placed on the heterogeneity of the phenotypic presentation of PCOD. It is the common expression of an unknown number of disorders and thus is a sign and not a specific diagnosis. Two essential features are arrested follicular maturation and atresia of follicles.
