The study found that higher income was associated with a reduced risk of menstrual dysfunction (MD) and combined MD with hyperandrogenism (MD+HIR), while self-reported infertility increased the risk of MD. Severe depression was significantly linked to MD+HIR, and women with these conditions had lower mental health scores.
