a

Geometric means of AMH were estimated using generalized linear regression models; p-values are from tests of linear trend with dietary exposures modelled as continuous variables

b

AMH values are presented in ng/ml

c

Adjusted for age, body mass index, energy intake, smoking, and current use of oral contraceptives
