Currently, obesity has taken epidemic proportions, especially among young women. 143 pregnant women with signs of abdominal obesity have been examined in order to study the patterns and evidence levels of the metabolic syndrome components. Despite the large number of scientific studies, the problem of metabolic syndrome in pregnant women needs serious further research aimed at the early diagnosis, perinatal prevention and treatment to reduce cardiovascular risks.
