Abbreviations: BMI, body mass index; LH, luteinized hormone; FSH, follicle-stimulating hormone; AMH, anti-Müllerian hormone; AFC, antral follicle count; E2, estradiol; hCG, human chorionic gonadotropin. Data are expressed as mean ± SEM. Differences between groups were considered statistically significant for p ≤ 0.05 *, p ≤ 0.01 ** and p ≤ 0.001 *** via Mann–Whitney test.
