Abstract

Dyslipidemia is a very common metabolic abnormality in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Insulin resistance is a key pathophysiology of PCOS, thus dyslipidemia in women with PCOS may be consistent with those found in an insulin resistant state. The objective of this study was to find changes in lipid profile in non-obese Pakistani women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
