  1. Data presented as number (N) and percentage (%). Norm-based scores in the US general population have a mean of 50 and a standard deviation of 10
  2. Mean score is set to 50 (Cut-off), therefore scores ≥50 or < 50 indicate better or worse physical or mental health than the mean US population, respectively
  3. PCS Physical Component Summary, MCS Mental Component Summary
  4. Bold values are statistically significant (p < 0.05)
  5. aMultiple logistic regression model adjusted by age and BMI, infertility problems, educational level and current occupation
