PCOS – Kinderwunsch und Schwangerschaft

Frauen mit der Diagnose PCOS haben ein höheres Risiko für Diabetes und eine gestörte Glukosetoleranz. Eine sorgfältige Beratung über Lebensstil, verbesserte Fruchtbarkeit und Schwangerschaft ist wichtig. Der Beitrag erläutert das Krankheitsbild und zeigt u. a. auf, in welchen Fällen Metformin zum Einsatz kommen kann, oder wann bei betroffenen Schwangeren auf die Entwicklung von Diabetes, Präeklampsie oder Hypertonie genauer zu achten ist.

Abstract

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is diagnosed according to the Rotterdam criteria, where two of the following three criteria must be met: Anovulation, hyperandrogenism, and characteristic morphology by sonography. Women diagnosed with PCOS are at higher risk for diabetes and impaired glucose tolerance. Therefore, these women should be carefully counselled about lifestyle measures and improvements in fertility and pregnancy outcomes. Some women benefit from metformin, which needs to be clarified by off-label use. For fertility, mild stimulation is possible in women with unovulatory cycles, whereas women with PCOS need to be monitored more closely for the development of gestational diabetes, preeclampsia or hypertension during pregnancy.
