Lipid metabolism in women with polycystic ovary syndrome: possible implications for an increased risk of coronary heart disease

This study reports values of serum lipids, lipoproteins, and the relative fatty acid composition of lecithin and cholesterol ester in 20 women with typical polycystic ovary syndrome (PCO). These values were compared with values of 22 regularly menstruating women without clinical evidence of androgen...

Zusammenfassung:This study reports values of serum lipids, lipoproteins, and the relative fatty acid composition of lecithin and cholesterol ester in 20 women with typical polycystic ovary syndrome (PCO). These values were compared with values of 22 regularly menstruating women without clinical evidence of androgen excess. Higher levels of triglycerides in serum (P
