The aim of the present cross-sectional study was to evaluate different habits in Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) patients. A total of 574 pediatric ASD patients were enrolled in the present study with written consent. As compared with control (9% abnormal habits), ASD patients showed significantly higher abnormal habits (98%). Among abnormal habits hyperactivity and restlessness was highest (78.91%) followed by unexplained (72.82%), food sensitivities (62.89%), anxiety and nervousness (45.29%), high male hormone (31.35%), deficiency of vitamins (28.91%) and least (15.15%) was Attentiveness. Higher percentages are due to occurrence of repetitive habits observed in many patients.
