Synthetic Phenolic Antioxidants and Their Metabolites in Follicular Fluid and Association with Diminished Ovarian Reserve: A Case–Control Study

Abstract

In this study, we report the measured frequency and concentrations of BHA, TBHQ, BHT, and their metabolites in follicular fluid. Moreover, we found the concentrations of BHT metabolites, especially BHT-CHO, BHT-COOH, and BHT-Q, are positively associated with the increased risk of DOR. https://doi.org/10.1289/EHP11309.
