FIGURE 1. Participant Screening and Enrollment Flow Chart.
Transvaginal ultrasound (TVU), lost-to-follow-up (LTFU)
We excluded 13 women at UCD from this analysis because they did not meet entry criteria and were deemed protocol violators (11 due to a thickened endometrium, 1 with breast cancer, 1 without a baseline blood sample). In addition, 13 women (11 at UCD, 2 at ISU) had missing body composition data at 6 and/or 12 month (mo) time points because they were lost to follow-up and thus excluded from the analysis. Three women discontinued treatment, but completed the trial; their data were included in the analysis.
