Figure 2 Cortisol levels with cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) versus observation. Mean ± standard error of the mean levels of nocturnal (2400–0745 hours) cortisol levels by treatment arm (observation vs. CBT) and before (pre) and after (post) treatment. The CBT reduced cortisol levels (P=.006). ∗P<.01. Fertility and Sterility , e1DOI: ( /j.fertnstert ) Copyright © 2013 American Society for Reproductive Medicine Terms and Conditions
