Abstract
Background: The present study was conducted to assess correlation of vitamin D with metabolic parameters in women diagnosed with Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS). Materials & Methods: This study was conducted on 60 women with PCOS in the age range of 18-45 years. Assessment of Height, weight, BMI, body fat (%) = Body fat mass (kg)/body weight (kg) A 100 was done. Hematological and biochemical parameters such as blood glucose, lipid profile, 25OHD, insulin, luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle stimulating hormone were performed. Results: Group I patients were vitamin D deficient (25OHD 30 ng/mL) (15). Group I patients were further divided into 3 sub groups. Group I a were mild (25 OHD 10-20 ng/mL), group I b were moderate (25 OHD 5-10 ng/mL) and group I c were severe (25 OHD 0.05). Conclusion: Authors found Hypovitaminosis D was common in patients with PCOS. There was no correlation of metabolic parameters with 25OHD.
