Abbreviation: LH: luteinizing hormone; T1: tertile 1; T2: tertile 2; T3: tertile 3; BMI: body mass index; BP: blood pressure; FPG: fasting plasma glucose; FCP: fasting plasma C-peptide; ACR: urinary microalbumin-creatinine ratio; TC: total cholesterol; LDL-c, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol. Data are shown as or number (percentage). versus the T1 group; ^# versus the T2 group.
