All phthalate concentrations have been adjusted for specific gravity and are presented in ng/mL. Boldface type indicates a significant P value < 0.05.
Abbreviations: GM, geometric mean; GSD, geometric SD; T, testosterone.
P value was calculated using a paired t test between biomarker concentrations at visit1 and visit 3. Skewed biomarkers were log transformed to achieve normality.
