PCO is compared with Viper
venom?? Why?Nowadays it is clear that
PCOS is a pro inflammatory state and
emerging data suggest that
chronic low grade inflammation supports
the development of metabolic
aberration and ovarian dysfunction .CRP is the most reliable
circulating marker of chronic low grade
inflammation in PCOS . Recently CRP
was found to be a direct promoter of the atherosclerotic processes and endothelial cell inflammation
leading to athero thrombosis . CRP
has a direct role in the vascular inflammatory
process stimulating the release
of inflammatory cytokines and increasing endothelial
expression of cellular
adhesion molecule which mediate leukocyte
migration . Findings of a study
suggest that increased
cardiovascular risk may be seen
in 83.3 % of the PCO women with CRP >
2.42 mg /1 .CRP values < 1
mg / 1 are considered low risk
1-3 mg/ 1 are considered intermediate
risk and 3-10 mg / 1
are considered high risk for
cardiovascular disease .
