Figure 2 Prevalence of low bone mineral density (BMD) in infertile women is shown across tertiles for osteoprotegerin (OPG) levels. A statistically significantly higher prevalence of low BMD is noted in women with serum OPG levels in the lowest OPG tertile (compared with the middle to highest tertiles).
