Dietary index for gut microbiota and its inverse association with female infertility: evidence from NHANES 2013–2018
Our findings demonstrate that a higher DI-GM score is associated with a reduced risk of female infertility, suggesting that dietary interventions targeting gut microbiota may offer a cost-effective strategy for improving reproductive health. Further longitudinal and interventional studies are warranted to confirm causality and elucidate underlying mechanisms.
