Abstract : Results: Overweight and obese women, compared with lean, tended to have a significantly higher plasma leptin levels (11.38± 4.06 vs. 6.22± 2.87 ng/mL; P=0.05). In overweight and obese subjects, circulating leptin concentrations showed a direct correlation with BMI (r=0.53; P=0.002), hip circumference (r=0.32; P=0.005), waist-hip ratio (r=0.37; P=0.042), weight (r=0.41; P=0.021), and E 2 on day 3 (r=0.35; P=0.048). In all correlation analyses, leptin levels did not correlate with cortisol or testosterone. In lean subjects, a bivariate correlation analysis showed that plasma leptin concentrations were directly correlated to hip circumference (r=0.43; P=0.012). Moreover, a direct correlation was found with progesterone on day 10 (r=0.43; P=0.014) and E2 on day 24 (r=0.47; P=0.007).
