Anti-Mullerian Hormone: Above and Beyond Conventional Ovarian Reserve Markers
Management of ovarian dysfunctions requires accurate estimation of ovarian reserve (OR). Therefore, reproductive hormones and antral follicle count (AFC) are assessed to indicate OR. Serum anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH) is a unique biomarker that has a critical role in folliculogenesis as well as steroidogenesis within ovaries. Secretion from preantral and early antral follicles renders AMH as th...
متن کاملAnti-mullerian hormone as a marker of ovarian reserve.
OBJECTIVE To analyse the usefulness of plasma anti-mullerian hormone (AMH) measurement as a tool for assessing ovarian reserve in a general infertility population. MATERIALS AND METHODS Plasma AMH levels were analysed in 238 women aged 18-46 years during day 3-5 of their menstrual cycle. All 238 patients had follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) levels less than 10 i.u./L, suggesting normal ovar...
متن کاملAnti Mullerian Hormone (AMH) is an indicator of ovarian functional reserve
Under the influence of the AMH formed in the Sertoli cells, the Mullerian ducts degenerate in male fetuses. This leads to the normal development of the male genitals. Female fetuses do not have AMH, and so develop the internal female genital organs. In women, at the onset of puberty AMH, like inhibin B, is formed by the granulosa cells of the maturing ovarian follicle, but not by the primordial...
متن کاملAssessment of ovarian reserve: Anti-Mullerian hormone versus follicle stimulating hormone
BACKGROUND This study aimed to evaluate the strength of anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH) and follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) in reflecting the antral follicle count (AFC) in infertile females. MATERIALS AND METHODS This cross-sectional study was conducted on 160 females, visiting infertility clinic for assisted reproduction. Serum samples collected on the 3rd day of the cycle were assayed for ...
