FIGURE 1.

Associations of serum sex hormone‐binding globulin (SHBG), free testosterone (Free T), total testosterone (Total T) and androstenedione (A4) with metabolic features of polycystic ovary syndrome: BMI (n = 96) (A), waist circumference (n = 95) (B), systolic blood pressure (n = 96) (C), diastolic blood pressure (n = 96) (D), total cholesterol (n = 93) (E), LDL cholesterol (n = 93) (F), HDL cholesterol (n = 93) (G), triglycerides (n = 93) (H) and homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA2‐IR) (n = 92) (I). Analyses were conducted with Z‐scores to allow comparison. Regression coefficients should therefore be interpreted as the increase in the dependent variable per standard deviation increase in serum SHBG, free testosterone, total testosterone or androstenedione (after adjustment for fasting (yes/no), panel C‐I).
