Objectives.
This study aimed to evaluate the effect of menopausal status on the risk of metabolic syndrome (MetS) in Tunisian women.
Methods.
We analyzed a total of 2680 women aged between 35 and 70 years.
Blood pressure, anthropometric indices, fasting glucose, and lipid profile were measured.
The MetS was assessed by the modified NCEP-ATPIII definition.
Results.
The mean values of waist circumference, blood pressure, plasma lipids, and fasting glucose were significantly higher in postmenopausal than in premenopausal women, a difference that was no longer present when adjusting for age.
Except for hypertriglyceridaemia, the frequency of central obesity, hyperglycemia, high blood pressure, and high total cholesterol was significantly higher in postmenopausal than in premenopausal women.
After adjusting for age, the significance persisted only for hyperglycemia.
The overall prevalence of MetS was 35.9%, higher in postmenopausal (45.7% versus 25.6%) than in premenopausal women.
A binary logistic regression analysis showed that menopause was independently associated with MetS (OR = 1.41, 95% CI 1.10–1.82) after adjusting for age, residence area, marital status, family history of cardiovascular disease, education level, and occupation.
Conclusions.
The present study provides evidence that the MetS is highly prevalent in this group of women.
Menopause can be a predictor of MetS independent of age in Tunisian women.
