The association between serum HDL levels and infertility among American women aged 20–44 years: A retrospective cross-sectional study of NHANES, 2013–2020
Our research findings suggest weak negative correlation between serum HDL and female infertility. However, upon stratified analysis by age, the correlation between HDL and infertility did not attain statistical significance. In cases of secondary infertility, a subtle dose-dependent trend was observed between serum HDL and infertility.
