Abstract

At Poly-cystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) pathway and duration, there are Hormonic elevations in Androgen and testosterone. Since PCOS is a metabolic disorder, the present study is designed to monitor Leptin levels at PCOS, being there is a common cause between metabolic disorder and PCOS. All potential biological factors that affect Leptin levels were isolated, in order to monitor exclusively BMI effect on serum Leptin levels at PCOS. The result illustrated that serum leptin level is not associated with the duration of PCOS in proportion to non-significant statistics of the present results which showed between leptin and PCOS duration, hence leptin hormone couldn't be a biomarker for PCOS investigation or prediction. MI are associated statistically with PCOS duration according to A two-tailed t-test, whereas BMI doesn't influence serum blood Leptin levels.
