The Usefulness of Homeostatic Measurement Assessment-Insulin Resistance (HOMA-IR) for Detection of Glucose Intolerance in Thai Women of Reproductive Age with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome

Table 2

Prevalence of glucose intolerance in 250 Thai women with polycystic ovary syndrome.

Glucose intolerance^†	Prevalence
	𝑛	% (95% CI)
Overall	50	20.0 (15.04–24.96)
Impaired fasting glucose (IFG)^‡	8	3.2 (1.02–5.38)
Impaired glucose tolerance (IGT)	34	13.6 (9.35–17.85)
Diabetes mellitus (DM)	14	5.6 (2.75–8.45)

^†Glucose intolerance: impaired fasting glucose (fasting plasma glucose ≥100 and <126 mg/dL), impaired glucose tolerance test (2 hr glucose ≥140 and <200 mg/dL) or the presence of diabetes mellitus (fasting plasma glucose ≥126 mg/dL and/or 2 hr glucose ≥200 mg/dL).
^‡4 women had combined IFG and IGT and 2 women had combined IFG and 2 hr glucose ≥200 mg/dL.
