The present cross sectional study is aimed at assessing the relationship of lipid profile in PCOS women with their anthropometric indices. This study includes 60 PCOS women whose serum Triglycerides, serum Total Cholesterol, serum LDL, serum HDL were measured. BMI and WC were measured for the same patients and the relationship were studied. Findings in the study are women with PCOS and BMI > 30 showed increased sr.TGL, sr. Total cholesterol, sr.LDL and low HDL levels . Waist circumference was seen to have significant influence on lipid profile. Therefore PCOS patients can be screened for dyslipidemia for actual prevention of cardiovascular accidents.
