Regression models comparing AGD in infant girls born to women with (A) PCOS or (B) PCOS or hirsutism; to infant girls born to a non-PCOS comparison group (β coefficient, 95% CI); p-value.

All Infant Girls

(A) Diagnosed PCOS
(23 cases; 232 non-casesa)
(B) PCOS or hirsutism
(68 cases; 232 non-casesa)

Unadjusted models Adjusted modelsb Unadjusted models Adjusted modelsb
AGD-AF 0.99 (−0.36, 2.34); p=0.15 1.21 (−0.01, 2.43); p=0.05 0.57 (−0.27, 1.41); p=0.18 0.82 (0.06, 1.58); p=0.03
AGD-ACc 0.57 (−1.07, 2.20); p=0.49 1.05 (−0.49, 2.60); p=0.18 0.91 (−0.12, 1.94); p=0.08 1.15 (0.19, 2.11); p=0.02

Term births only (>37 weeks)

(A) Diagnosed PCOS
(19 cases; 218 non-casesa)
(B) PCOS or hirsutism
(58 cases; 218 non-casesa)

AGD-AF 1.68 (0.22, 3.16); p=0.02 1.65 (0.30, 2.99); p=0.02 0.93 (0.05, 1.81); p=0.04 0.99 (0.19, 1.79); p=0.02
AGD-ACc 1.20 (−0.58, 2.98); p=0.19 1.43 (−0.27, 3.12); p=0.09 1.16 (0.07, 2.25); p=0.04 1.22 (−0.15, 2.91); p=0.08
a

The comparison group (“non-cases”) includes women who reported: (1) not having PCOS; (2) not being hirsute; (3) not having 8 or fewer menstrual periods per year.

b

Adjusting for infant age at exam, weight-for-length z-score, gestational age at delivery, study center, maternal age, race.

c

Due to one missing AGD-AC value, the sample size is one less than for the AGD-AF analysis.
