Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
LH/FSH3 months

Blood sample was taken from each woman before starting the study to measure the level of androgen in the blood and LH/FSH which will be estimated again after 3months to its level after each type of diet

body mass index3 months

Weight and height measured while the patient is wearing a thin layer of clothes to calculate the body mass index according to the following equation in both groups: BMI=weight/height2 (Kg/m2)

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
waist-hip ratio3 months

A tape measurement wase used to determine the hip and waist circumference of each patient to calculate the waist-hip ratio by dividing the waist reading over the hip reading (the waist circumference should be measured at the midpoint between the lower margin of the last palpable ribs and the top of the iliac crest , hip circumference obtained by measuring at the top of the iliac crest in case the waist is convex rather than concave, such as with different body types, and obesity, the waist may be measured at a horizontal level (2.5 cm) above the umbilicus .for both measurements.
