Abstract
Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome is a common hormonal disorder that affects women of reproductive age. It is characterized by a combination of symptoms, including irregular periods, excess androgen production, and presence of cysts on the ovaries. The study aimed to assess the risk of Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome among nursing students. The objectives of this were to assess the risk of PCOS among nursing students and to find out the association between risk of PCOS with selected socio demographic variables. A quantitative research approach was used for the study. A sample of one hundred and twenty students were selected by using non probability purposive sampling technique. The study was conducted at MGM Muthoot College of Nursing, Kozhencherry. The risk is assessed by using a modified self assessment test which consist of questions to assess the risk of PCOS and socio demographic variables. The present study revealed distribution of risk that 0.83% of the samples were having no risk, 43.33% of the samples were having poor risk, 37.5% of the samples were having moderate risk and 23.3% of the samples were having high risk for PCOS. Chi square analysis showed that there was significant association between risk of PCOS among students with selected socio demographic variables like age, (χ2=43.710), pattern of menstrual cycle (χ2= 9.34), family history of diabetes mellitus (χ2= 9.321) and socio economic status (χ2= 12.60). This study recommends that early identification of risk of PCOS helps in controlling and minimizing the complications.
