The World Health Organization has described obesity as one of today’s most neglected public health problems, affecting every region of the globe.1 The worldwide prevalence of obesity has nearly doubled between 1980 and 2008. Worldwide, at least 2.8 million people die each year as a result of being overweight/obese.2 Obesity has reached epidemic proportion in India with morbid obesity affecting 5% of the country’s population. In the World Health Survey, the prevalence of physical inactivity in India was 9.3% in men and 15.2% in women.3 As the rate of obesity climbs, obesity-related diseases and conditions follow with similar rates. The cost of health care is increased and also imposing a huge burden on our economy and health care system.4 Obesity is associated with a number of comorbid conditions, such as diabetes mellitus, hypertension, cancer, dyslipidemia, cardiovascular abnormalities, anemia, obstructive sleep apnea, and psychosocial abnormalities. The global emergence of obesity and diabetes is as much an economic issue as it is a health issue. Physical inactivity and unhealthy diet are major causes for the change in social and economic conditions.5 The prevalence of raised BMI increases with income level of countries up to upper middle income levels.2 Studies have shown that obesity in males in the reproductive age group has led to an increase in male infertility, which may be associated with decreased pregnancy rates and increased pregnancy loss in couples who undergo artificial reproductive treatment.6,7 As the rate of obesity climbs, obesity-related diseases and conditions follow with similar rates. The cost of health care is increased and also imposes a huge burden on our economy and health care system.4 This study aims at comparing the lipid profile levels of obese and nonobese men.
