F&S Reports(2024)
摘要
Objective
To study the impact of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) on work-related impairments and to explore relationships with race, mental health, and healthcare delivery indices
Design
A cross-sectional internet-based survey
Setting
North American women with PCOS between August 2022 and October 2022
Patients
Individuals with a self-reported diagnosis of PCOS.; Interventions: No
Main Outcome Measures
Primary outcomes included missed work due to PCOS. Secondary outcomes encompassed leave from work, impacts on the quality of work, and feelings of being held back at work due to PCOS
Results
Out of 1,105 respondents, 1,058 reported having PCOS diagnosed by a physician. Of this group, 50.4% reported missing work because of PCOS, 72% felt PCOS impacted the quality of their work, and 51.5% felt held back at work by PCOS. Multivariable analyses revealed that missing work due to PCOS independently associated with Black race, lack of insurance, requiring multiple doctors for a PCOS diagnosis, needing three or more doctors for current care, decreased satisfaction with care, and symptoms of anxiety and depression.
Conclusions
PCOS significantly impacts employment-related productivity. Factors such as race, mental health, and healthcare delivery appear to play a crucial role in the extent of this impact.
