Serum androgens were measured with tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). High-sensitivity CRP was measured with an immunoturbidimetric assay (Tina-quant C-Reactive Protein IV; Roche Diagnostics GmbH). AMH, estradiol, FSH, LH, and SHBG were measured with ECLIA (Elecsys AMH Plus, Elecsys Estradiol III, Elecsys FSH, Elecsys LH, and Elecsys SHBG, Roche Diagnostics GmbH).
