The results showed that BMI of majority women on both groups were in the range of 24.9-29.9, on the other hand 33% of women in control group and 26% patients suffered from the grade one obesity. Minimum ratio of waist - to - hip ratio (WHR) in patients was 0.72 and in healthy women was 0.47. in control group 90% and in healthy subjects 74% of women suffered from upper - truncal obesity (WHR>0.8).
