Background - Hypertension is a frequently encountered multifactorial disorder and its prevalence is reported to increase in postmenopausal females. Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death in women. Furthermore, there is evidence that hormonal changes also leads to anthropometric changes associated with hypertension.Aim – To compare the anthropometric measures and blood pressure of pre and post- menopausal women and find the association between anthropometric measures and hypertension.Methodology – A comparative study was conducted on 50 pre and 50 post-menopausal women. The sampling method was purposive sampling and conducted in Goyala Vihar of Delhi. The door to door survey was conducted and data was collected using kobo tool. The measurements of BP, weight, height, hip and waist circumference was done following the protocols. The data was analysed using SPSS software.Result and conclusion – The result was significant for all variables (Age, Wt, BMI, HC, WC, WHR and BAI) except Ht. Independent T test was used to compare. Correlation and regression depicted that age is the predictor for diastolic blood pressure in pre- menopausal women and for post- menopausal women age, Ht, Wt, BMI, WC and HC are predictor of diastolic blood pressure. Women in post- menopausal stage were at high risk of HTN compared to pre-menopausal women.
