Prevalence of hypertension is on the rise in the today’s society, especially among working women. Present study was aimed to compare the anthropometric and physiological variables of normotensive and hypertensive premenopausal women so as to ascertain the possible changes occurring in these variables among hypertensive women. 330 premenopausal Punjabi working women were randomly selected. A questionnaire was designed to note down the required details. Anthropometric variables like weight, height, waist circumference, hip circumference, skin folds and physiological variables like systolic and diastolic blood pressure were taken with standardized methods. Normotensive (241) and hypertensive (89) subjects were compared for these variables. Significantly higher mean values of weight, waist circumference, hip circumference, skin folds, BMI, waist hip ratio, waist stature ratio, percent body fat, blood pressure, pulse pressure were observed among hypertensive subjects. Higher mean values of all anthropometric variables and physiological variables of hypertensive subjects point towards the unhealthy changes occurring in all body parameters of hypertensive subjects. It is suggested that if these changes are noticed at earlier stage and taken seriously, the prevalence of hypertension can be reduced. In working women, work stress might further be contributing towards its higher prevalence.
