Objectives: To evaluate the relationship between MELASMA and polycystic ovanan disease and ANDROGENIC HORMONES. Patients and Methods: This case-control study was performed on 101 patients with MELASMA and 101 control patients referred to the skin clinic of Ardebil University of Medical Sciences. Serum levels of LH, FSH, DHEAS, prolactine, testostrone and 17 hydroxy progestrone were measured and sonography of ovaries was done. Results: The age of the study subjects ranged from 15 to 45 years. There was no significant difference in serum levels of any of hormones between cases and control groups (P<0.05). Ovarian cysts were found in 65/3% of MELASMA patients and 47.5% of control patients (P=0.01).
