Adolescent regular menstrual cycles

Univariate analysis B S.E. Wald Odds Ratio 95% CI P-value

Testosterone 0.90 0.48 3.49 2.47 0.96–6.35 0.06
BMI 0.48 0.11 0.19 1.05 0.84–1.31 0.66

Other physical characteristics, endocrine, or ovarian ultrasound parameters did not contribute to improve the prediction for subfertility. Significant outcomes (P < 0.05) are presented in bold.

*

Gynaecological age (age in months minus age in months at menarche).
