Data is expressed as medians
(interquartile ranges). The significance test used was Mann-Whitney U
test, when a rule |skewness/standard error of
skewness|>1.96 was valid for the dependent
variable, otherwise t-test was used (t-sign).aP-value: non-PCOS with HDP compared to non-PCOS
without HDP. bP-value: srPCOS without HDP compared to
non-PCOS without HDP. cP-value: srPCOS with HDP
compared to non-PCOS without HDP. dP-value srPCOS with
HDP compared to srPCOS without HDP. eP-value: srPCOS
with HDP compared to non-PCOS with HDP. fThe numbers
of women in separate analyses varies due to non-response to some
items. fThe
results were adjusted for BMI at age 31 and 46 years using univariate
general linear modelling (ANCOVA). BMI: body mass index; FAI:
free androgen index; HDP: hypertensive disorder of pregnancy; srPCOS:
self-reported polycystic ovary syndrome; SHBG: sex hormone binding
globulin.
