Values in bold indicate statistically significant results.

^aB coefficients for women with medium and high physical activity (PA) show the differences from the corresponding values of the women with low PA. All values are adjusted for age, marital status, parity, employment status, self-reported mental disorders, use of psycholeptics, use of psychoanaleptics, and menopausal symptoms.
