Abstract

We found that the majority of participants in our study in the group of women with Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) had Body mass index values between 25 and 29.99 (35.97%), which according to current norms of the indicator puts them in the group of obesity. In the same group, the second largest were the patients with normal weight or BMI between 18.5 and 24.99 (25.12%). Third in number is the group of respondents with Body mass index between 30 and 34.99 (22,16%) or defined as obesity of the 1st degree. The mean body mass index of women in the PCOS group was 28.32. The mean BMI for women in the control group of our study is 23.17.
