Abstract
⺠We examine the influence of menopause and BMI on leptin and adiponectin secretion. ⺠We assess the relationships of these adipokines with insulin resistance and lipids. ⺠We find that menopause influences adipokines production only in obese subjects. ⺠Menopause affects the relationships of adipokines with lipids and insulin resistance.
