The subjects were asked about menstrual irregularity throughself-reported questionnaire. The relationship of menstrual irregularity with dyslipidemia was assessed by using multivariable logistic regression analysis. :
Results : In the menstrual irregularity group, the prevalence of dyslipidemia parameters such as hypercholesterolemia,hypo-high-density lipoproteincholesterolemia,and hyper-low-density lipoproteincholesterolemia were significantly higher thanin the normocyclic group.In particular, the risks of hypercholesterolemia and hypo-high-density lipoproteincholesterolemia were positively associated with menstrual irregularity after adjustingfor possible confounding variables. :
