The study comprised of 200 women of same reproductive age. Out of which 100 were healthy women and 100 were women suffering from polycystic ovarian syndrome. Lipid Profile was tested on auto analyzer by available commercial kits. Student t test were applied to determine difference between the two. SPSS software 20.0 was used for statistical analysis.
