The study aimed to estimate lipid parameters among ladies with polycystic ovaries syndrome attending Kosti teaching hospital. Blood samples were collected after obtaining verbal consent from cases and controls. Serum lipid profiles were estimated by enzymatic reactions through spectrophotometer method. Result: Serum Total Cholesterol (TC), Triglycerides (TG), Low Density Lipoprotein (LDL) and High Density Lipoprotein (HDL) values were elevated significantly in cases compared to controls. Conclusion: Based on the findings of the present study, patients of PCOS have a high lipid profile. Keywords: Polycystic ovary syndrome, Lipid Profile and Dyslipidemia.
