Serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D is associated with homocysteine in infertile patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS)

OBJECTIVES: The aim of the study was to investigate whether there is a relationship between serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D and homocysteine in infertile-related PCOS.

MATERIAL AND METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed 208 participants (86 PCOS and 122 non-PCOS) who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria from March 2020 to October 2021 at the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology of the Second affiliated hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University. Methods of Pearson correlation and linear regression were used to evaluate the associations between serum levels of 25-hydroxyvitamin D and homocysteine in infertile-related PCOS, and a smooth curve fitting were used to address potential nonlinearity.

RESULTS: An inverse association between serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D and homocysteine was observed (r = -0.392, p < 0.001) in PCOS groups. Multiple linear regression analysis showed serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D was independently negatively associated with homocysteine levels after controlling for confounding factors (β = -0.316, p = 0.006). Age, BMI-stratified multivariate linear regression showed that serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D were independently associated with hyperhomocysteine especially in PCOS women aged 30 years or younger after adjusting age, BMI, and AMH.

CONCLUSIONS: Herein, the current findings suggest that 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels was negatively associated with serum homocysteine in women with infertility-related PCOS.
