To evaluate the effects of nutritional counseling on the dietary habits and anthropometric parameters of overweight and obese adolescentswith polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).
This was a prospective, longitudinal and auto-controlled study. Thirty adolescents aged 13-19 years-old, diagnosed with PCOS received nutritional counseling and were followed-up for 6 months. After the follow-up period, the results were evaluated through body weight, body mass index (BMI) and waist circumference (WC).
Sixty-percent of the adolescents adhered to the nutritional counseling and, of these, 50% lost weight. Adolescents who lost weight changed their dietary habits by adopting hypocaloric diets and eating more meals per day, as per nutritional counseling. The waist circumference (WC) decreased significantly, although the body weight decreased non-significantly after adoption of a hypocaloric diet.
Although there was no significant weight loss, there was a considerable reduction in theWCassociated with hypocaloric diets and with eating a greater number of meals per day.

PURPOSE: To compare the frequency of metabolic syndrome (MetS) and the risk factors associated with this syndrome in women from the Brazilian Southeast with polycystic ovary syndrome (POS) evaluated during adolescence and adult age. METHODS: This was a cross-sectional study conducted on 147 patients with a diagnosis of POS who were divided into two groups: Adolescents, 42 adolescents aged 13 to 19 years, and Adults, 105 women aged 20 to 40 years. The following factors were evaluated: clinical characteristics (body mass index - BMI, Ferriman index, abdominal circumference - AC, and systemic arterial pressure), mean ovarian volume, laboratory variables (serum androgen profile, lipid profile, glycemia, and fasting insulin), and frequency of MetS. The results were expressed as mean±standard deviation. We used multiple logistic regression with the response variable being the presence of MetS and the predictor variables the levels of total testosterone, insulin and BMI. RESULTS: The frequency of MetS was approximately twice higher in the group of adult women compared to the adolescents with POS (Adolescents: 23.8 vs. Adults: 42.9%, p=0.04). Among the defining criteria of MetS, only the qualitative variable of systemic arterial pressure ≥130/85 mmHg was more frequent among the adult women (p=0,01). The BMI was an independent predictor of MetS among the adolescent (p=0.03) and adult women (p<0.01) with POS. Serum insulin level was a predictor of MetS only among adult women with POS (p<0.01). AC was greater among adult women (p=0.04). CONCLUSION: Adult women with POS have a twice higher frequency of MetS than adolescents with POS from the Brazilian Southeast. Although the BMI is associated with the development of MetS in any phase of life in women with POS, serum insulin level was an independent predictor of MetS only among adult women with this disorder.
