Association between bedtime and female infertility: a secondary analysis from a cross-sectional study.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

To evaluate the association between bedtime and infertility and to identify the optimal bedtime for women of reproductive age.

Methods

We conducted a cross-sectional study using data from 3,903 female participants in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) from 2015 to 2020. The effect of bedtime on female infertility was assessed using the binary logistic regression in different models, including crude model and adjusted models. To identify the non-linear correlation between bedtime and infertility, generalized additive models (GAM) were utilized. Subgroup analyses were conducted by age, body mass index (BMI), waist circumference, physical activity total time, marital status, smoking status, drinking status and sleep duration.
