Abstract
Introduction: Insulin resistance (IR) may play a central role in the pathophysiology of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Controlled ovarian stimulation (COS) in PCOS women in the setting of assisted reproductive technology (ART) is always a challenge for clinicians. However, it remains unclear whether IR in women with PCOS correlates with reduced ovarian sensitivity to exogenous gonadotropin (Gn). This study aimed to explore the association between homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) and ovarian sensitivity index (OSI).
Methods: In this retrospective cohort study, we explored the association between Ln HOMA-IR and Ln OSI based on smoothing splines generated by generalized additive model (GAM). Then the correlation between HOMA-IR and OSI was further tested with a multivariable linear regression model and subgroup analysis.
Results: 1508 women with PCOS aged 20-39 years undergoing their first oocyte retrieval cycle were included consecutively between 2018 until 2022. We observed a negative association between Ln HOMA-IR and Ln OSI by using smoothing splines. In multivariable linear regression analysis, the inverse association between Ln HOMA-IR and Ln OSI was still found in PCOS women after adjustment for potential confounders (β = -0.18, 95% CI -0.25, -0.11). Compared with patients with the lowest tertile of HOMA-IR, those who had the highest tertile of HOMA-IR had lower OSI values (β = -0.25, 95% CI -0.36, -0.15).
Discussion: Our study provided evidence for the inverse correlation between IR and the ovarian sensitivity during COS in PCOS women. Herein, we proposed new insights for individualized manipulation in PCOS patients with IR undergoing ART.
