Background:

The serum lipid profile in premenopausal and perimenopausal/postmenopausal women gets deranged not only due to hormonal changes in different patterns of menstrual cycle but also due to body mass index (BMI) and dietary influence.

Methods:

A hospital-based study was carried out on total (n = 161) healthy women in different phases of menstrual cycle.

Results:

Dietary factor has not any influence on the lipid profile in these women and BMI has got an effect to a lesser extent on lipid profile in postmenopausal group.
