One-way ANOVA group analysis was performed in controls to determine significant differences between time points for FGF19, 21, 23 and fetuin-A within control group

***p < 0.0001;

**p < 0.001. post hoc analysis with Bonferroni correction for subgroup analysis comparing each the time point with control baseline expression

###p < 0.0001;

##p < 0.001;

#p < 0.05. Similarly, One-way ANOVA group analysis was performed in PCOS women separately

*** p < 0.0001;

**p < 0.001, with the post hoc analysis undertaken to compare each time point measurements within the PCOS group to baseline expression levels in the PCOS group ###p < 0.0001; ##p < 0.001. Two-way RM ANOVA analysis was performed to compare between control and PCOS group; $p < 0.05.
