Materials and Methods: The present cross-sectional study adopted a cluster-sampling method to evaluate 2000 girls (aged 9-18) who were selected from all regions of Shiraz. Then, questionnaires were completed, including data on demographic characteristics, menstrual disorders, and the like. Then, their weight, height, waist, and the circumference of the hip were measured by the standard method, and finally, the data were analyzed by SPSS using statistical tests.

Results: A number of 1945 (97.3%) out of 2000 girls had android obesity <0.85 and 55 (2.8%) of them suffered from android obesity >0.85. Based on the results, no significant relationship was observed between android obesity and bleeding duration (P = 0.09), menstrual cycle length (P = 0.76), amenorrhea (P = 0.98), dysmenorrhea (P = 0.31), spotting (P = 0.24), passing clots (P=0.35), menstrual regularity (P = 0.89), and menstrual bleeding (P = 0.08). However, a meaningful relationship was found between android obesity (P = 0.001) and body mass index (BMI).

Conclusions: In general, most subjects did not have android obesity. Based on the results, there was a meaningful relationship between BMI and android obesity. However, no meaningful relationship was found between bleeding duration, passing clots, menstrual regularity, menstrual cycle length, amenorrhea, dysmenorrhea, spotting, and menstrual bleeding. Therefore, the necessity of paying more attention to adolescents in intervention programs and education is felt more than before in order to improve their nutritional status and health.
