The lipid profiles (total cholesterol, LDL-C, HDL-C and triglyceride [TG]) were measured by an enzymatic colorimetric method using biosystem reagents. The data management and analysis were done with SPSS version 22. Results There was no significant difference between the two groups in terms of age and body mass index except TG in PCOS ladies with BMI more than 25 was significantly higher in comparison with non-PCOs. Conclusion This study does not guide the belief that PCOS affects serum lipid ranges, besides in the term of TG in PCOS girls with BMI >25. It is far advised to do this study in ladies with PCOS sufferers from insulin resistance.
