Aim: Our study aimed to investigate anxiety, depression, and obsessive-compulsive disorders (OCDs) among pregnant women during the Covid-19pandemic.Material and Method: This cross-sectional study was conducted on 71 pregnant women who referred to Gynecology and Obstetrics Clinic betweenJune and July 2020 for routine pregnancy examination. The Beck anxiety inventory (BAI), the Beck depression inventory (BDI), and the Maudsleyobsessive-compulsive inventory (MOCI) were used to assess the rate of depression, anxiety, and OCD. The questionnaire containing informationabout smoking, working status, gravidity, and education was completed by the subjects.Results: Mean age of the participants was 30 years and their mean body mass index (BMI) was 24.4. 76.1% of the participants were non-smokers.71.8% were nulliparous. 62% of pregnant women had a high school degree. 80.3% were working. There was a positive significant relationship betweenBDI and BAI (r=0.405, 0.000) and MOCI scores (r=0.319, sig= 0.007). There was a negative statistically significant relationship between OCD andBMI (r=-0.268, sig=0.024). Anxiety, depression, and OCDs were not significantly different between smokers and non-smokers. Working pregnantwomen had significantly higher depression and OCDs than the non-working had. The pregnant women showed mild to severe anxiety and depressionlevels and also showed moderate to high OCDs under the Covid-19 pandemic. Most of the pregnant women showed mild depression, moderateanxiety, and high OCD. The results showed that the studied pregnant women experienced mental complications under the Covid-19 pandemic.Conclusion: Since the mental health of pregnant women is highly important, one should pay special attention to the mental health of workingpregnant women under the Covid-19 pandemic. The reason is that such women are more vulnerable to infectious diseases such as Covid-19.

Amaç: Polikistik over sendromu (PKOS), üremeçağındaki kadınların %12-23'ini etkileyen en yaygınendokrin bozukluktur. Bu çalışmada, PKOS’lu hastalardaserum Glikoz Potasyum (Glu/K+) oranının tanısal değeriolup olmadığı araştırıldı.Gereç ve Yöntem: Bu araştırma, hasta verileri kullanılarakretrospektif tek merkezli yürütülen bir analiz çalışmasıdır.Çalışma kriterlerine uygun 98 PKOS’lu ile 78 yaş uyumlukadın kontrol grubu çalışmaya dahil edildi. Serum Glu/K+oranı, serum açlık Glikozunun serum potasyumdüzeylerine bölünmesiyle hesaplandı ve laboratuvar verileritüm hasta ve kontrol grubu için analiz edildi.Bulgular: İnsülin ile Glu/K+ oranı arasında korelasyonanalizinde anlamlı bağıntı tespit edildi. Glu/K+ oranı içinROC eğri altındaki alan insüline yakın şekilde 0,759bulundu.. ROC analizine göre PKOS tanısı için İnsülincut-off değeri 81% duyarlılık ve 75% özgüllük değerinde9,1 olarak tespit edilirken Glu/K+ oranının cut-off değeri74% duyarlılık ve 71% özgüllük değerinde 21,4 olarakhesaplandı.Sonuç: Sonuçlarımız, serum Glu/K+ oranının PKOS içintanısal özelliklere sahip olan insülin ile pozitif ve yakındanilişkili olduğunu göstermektedir. Serum Glu/K+ oranınınPCOS için yararlı bir biyobelirteç olarak kullanılabilecekduyarlılık ve özgüllüğe sahip olduğu tespit ettik.

Aim: Infertility affects women biologically, psychologically and socially and as a result, it decreases the quality of life. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of infertility on anxiety and depression in women. Material and Method: The study was planned as an observational study. Patients who were diagnosed as infertile and were admitted to Medistate Hospital Obstetrics, In Vitro Fertilization outpatient clinic, Adana City Training and Research Hospital, and Obstetrics and Gynecology outpatient clinic between May and November 2019 were included in the study. The inclusion criteria were the patients who had been diagnosed as infertility for at least one year. A questionnaire including ’Beck Anxiety Inventory’ and “Beck Depression Inventory’’ was completed with the face-to-face interview technique by volunteer infertile women who met the inclusion criteria. Results: The study was completed with 200 volunteer infertile patients. According to the depression score, 60 (30%) of the participants were normal, 84 (42%) had mild, 40 (20%) had moderate and 16 (8%) had severe depression. According to the anxiety score, 72 (36%) of the participants were normal, 78 (39%) had mild, 32 (16%) had moderate and 18 (9%) had severe anxiety. Conclusion: Increased depression and anxiety scores should be considered in infertile patients. Further studies are needed to indicate which type of psychological treatment is more effective at the individual level.
