Correlations between anthropometry and lipid profile in women with PCOS

Abstract: Background:Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is the most common endocrinopathy in reproductive age women and is associated with both reproductive and metabolic abnormalities. Recent studies have demonstrated an early onset of abnormal cardiovascular risk profile in women with PCOS. Abnormal lipid profile patterns are common in women with PCOS, and these abnormalities are not uniform in all populations. Anthropometry is a simple and commonly used research tool for assessing metabolic risk in women with PCOS. The… Show more

“…These disorders are observed in peripheral tissues - adipocytes and skeletal muscles, but also in the cells of the ovarian granulosa and theca cell layers and in fibroblasts [ 4 ]. Around 70% of patients with PCOS show lipid metabolism disorders manifested by quantitative and qualitative changes in the parameters of the lipid profile and lipoproteins [ 5 ].…”

“…This is due to influence of age, BMI, insulin resistance, hyperandrogenism, genetics and environmental factors. 9 Insulin resistance resulting in hyperinsulinemia is associated with diverse adverse effects on regulating lipid metabolism in PCOS subjects. Hyperinsulinemia appears to be a leading factor for development of cardiovascular diseases.…”
