  1. The values are given as the means ± SD or the means (95% CI). The P value for the t-test or Mann–Whitney U tests for the difference between the two groups. The BMI, body mass index; FSH, follicle-stimulating hormone; FBG, fasting blood glucose; HOMA-IR, homeostasis model assessment - insulin resistance index. To convert the glucose to mg/dL, divide by 0.05551.
