Abstract: Objective To investigate the effect of orlistat combined intervention on anthropometry,androgen,glucose and lipid metabolism in overweight or obese patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Methods Totally 75 overweight or obese PCOS patients[body mass index(BMI) ≥ 24kg/m2]were admitted to the Department of Endocrinology,Beijing Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital,Capital Medical University,from May to September 2018,numbered according to the order of treatment and randomly divided into two groups.Group 1 included 50 patients,orlistat plus drospirenone and ethinylestradiol tablets(Ⅱ) (Yaz) comprehensive intervention;Group 2 included 25 patients treated with Yaz alone.The changes of anthropometry,androgen,glucose and lipid metabolism,liver and kidney function indexes before and after 3 months of treatment in the two groups were compared. Results After 3 months of treatment,the body weight,waist circumference,hip circumference and BMI of orlistat plus Yaz comprehensive intervention group and Yaz alone group were significantly decreased,but the decrease of orlistat plus Yaz comprehensive intervention group was significantly greater than those Yaz alone group(P<0.05).Among the hormone indicators, free testosterone (FT),sex hormone-binding globulin(SHBG) of the two groups were significantly changed, but there was no statistically significant difference in the degree of change between the two groups (P>0.05).Glucose and lipid metabolism,liver and kidney function were all changed, and there was no statistically significant difference between the two groups (P>0.05). Conclusion Orlistat combined with Yaz was superior to Yaz alone in decreasing the body weight and waist circumference of overweight or obese PCOS patients,providing a basis for clinical rational drug selection.
