Özet
This study aimed to examine the depression, suicide likelihood, aggression levels, and second-to-fourth finger measurements in patients diagnosed with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). The study included patients diagnosed with PCOS from our hospital's endocrinology clinic and healthy controls matched for demographic characteristics. The Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), Suicide Probability Scale (SPS), and Buss-Perry Aggression Questionnaire (BPAQ) were administered. The second and fourth finger length of all participants were measured in centimeters using a digital vernier caliper. A total of 124 individuals (62 PCOS patients and 62 controls) participated in our study. Although the scale scores were higher in the PCOS group, the only significant difference was observed in the verbal aggression of the BPAQ. The study identified elevated levels of verbal aggression in PCOS patients. Based on these findings, these patients should be informed about and monitored for psychiatric symptoms.Keywords: polycystic ovary syndrome, suicide likelihood, aggression, depression
