Abstract: Objective: We aim to discuss the influence of lifestyle guidance and mental care on internal secretion,
carbohydrate metabolism and pregnancy in obese patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Methods: In
total, 84 obese PCOS patients were selected as subjects of study for a retrospective analysis and divided into an
observation group (44 cases) and a control group (40 cases) according to care methods. The patients of the control
group received routine care and those of the observation group received lifestyle guidance and mental care on
the basis of routine care. The weight and body mass index (BMI), levels of luteinizing hormone (LH), ratio between
LH, follicle-stimulating hormone (LH/FSH), testosterone (T), fasting blood glucose (FBG), fasting insulin (FINS), the
homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR),the self-rating anxiety scale (SAS) and self-rating
depression scale (SDS) were calculated. Results: After care, the weight, BMI, the levels of LH, LH/FSH and T, HOMA-
IR and FINS, SDS and SAS scores of the observation group were lower than those of in the control group (P
