Abstract: Citrus, which has been consumed internationally for a long time, is widely used as a health food. Citrus and its active components exert significant effects on oxidative stress and lipid metabolism, which are closely associated with female reproductive health. Studies suggest that citrus-derived compounds may alleviate oxidative stress by activating signaling pathways such as nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) and Sirtuin 1 (SIRT1), and improve lipid metabolism through the activation of pathways such as peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α (PPARα). This review focuses on the effects of Citrus on oxidative stress and lipid metabolism, aiming to provide new insights for promoting female reproductive health; however, further work is needed to elucidate the mechanisms involved and validate the therapeutic potential of Citrus’s bioactive components in clinical settings.
