<jats:p>OBJECTIVE—To evaluate insulin sensitivity (IS) and β-cell function (βF) in lean and obese women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), either separately or by using a disposition index (DI).</jats:p> <jats:p>RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS—A total of 64 women with PCOS and 20 healthy women were examined by anthropometry, oral glucose tolerance tests (OGTTs), and insulin tolerance tests. Statistical analysis used one-way ANOVA, Kruskal-Wallis, and Mann-Whitney U tests, as appropriate.</jats:p> <jats:p>RESULTS—A significantly higher waist-to-hip ratio (P &lt; 0.0001) was found in both lean and obese women with PCOS. Higher basal blood glucose (P &lt; 0.004) and blood glucose values at 3 h of OGTT (P &lt; 0.008) were found in lean and obese PCOS subjects in comparison with control subjects. Insulin resistance by homeostasis model assessment (P &lt; 0.007) was significantly higher in obese PCOS than in control or lean PCOS subjects. Early-phase insulin secretion (insulinogenic index [ΔI/ΔG30–0, where I is insulin and G is glucose]; P &lt; 0.0007) was significantly higher in both lean and obese PCOS subjects than in healthy women. All tested combinations of parameters of IS and βF (DIs) followed a physiological hyperbolic relationship. Significantly lower values of the fasting state–derived DIs were found (all P &lt; 0.05) in obese PCOS subjects. Significantly higher values of all of these indexes derived from nonfasting values were found in lean PCOS as compared with control and obese PCOS subjects (all P &lt; 10–3).</jats:p> <jats:p>CONCLUSIONS—Increased βF was found even in lean individuals with PCOS. Insulin hypersecretion is thus probably connected to the pathogenesis of PCOS.</jats:p>
