Results:
The percentage of the normal uterine cavity was significantly lower in the PCOS group than control group as 51 % and 66.7 %, 77 % and 94.2 % according to the ASRM and ESHRE/ESGE classifications, respectively.
The frequency of Partial Septate Uterus (ESHRE-ESGE U2a / ASRM Va, 21.6% vs 5.8 % p<0.05), Complete Septate Uterus (ESHRE-ESGE U2b / ASRM Vb, 7.8% vs 0% p<0.01) and Dysmorphic Uterus (ESHRE-ESGE U1c) / ASRM VII) 3.9 % vs 0 p<0.05) were significantly higher in PCOS patients than controls.
The frequency of arcuate uterus classified as VI in ASRM and considered as normal in ESHRE/ESGE was 16 % and 17.3 % in PCOS and control groups, respectively, without statistically significant difference.
The increased frequency of intrauterine cavity abnormalities was correlated with serum free testosterone levels.
