متن کاملCan anti-Mullerian hormone predict the diagnosis of polycystic ovary syndrome? A systematic review and meta-analysis of extracted data.
CONTEXT Existing biochemical tests for polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) have poor sensitivity and specificity. Many women with PCOS have high anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) concentrations; thus, this may be a useful addition to the diagnostic criteria. OBJECTIVE A systematic literature review was performed to assess the true accuracy of AMH in the prediction of PCOS and to determine the optimal...
متن کاملRelationship between Serum Levels of Anti-Mullerian Hormone, Adiponectin and Oxidative Stress Markers in Patients with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Background: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is the most common endocrine disorder in women of reproductive age. Anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH) is a valid indicator of ovarian function and is used for PCOS diagnosis. Some studies have shown that adipokines affect the synthesis of AMH, and therefore they are somehow related in function. The aim of the present study was to determine the relationshi...
متن کاملP-85: Effect of Metformin on Anti-Mullerian Hormone (AMH) Level in Women with Infertility and Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Background Women with PCOS have increased AMH levels due to accumulated preantral and small antral in follicles. Ovulation improvement following decrease in levels of AMH could accure in these patients. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of metformin on anti-Mullerian hormone levels in women with polycystic ovary syndrome and infertility MaterialsAndMethods This randomized cli...
متن کاملSerum anti-Mullerian hormone levels in the main phenotypes of polycystic ovary syndrome.
OBJECTIVE To characterize the difference in circulating anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) levels between the main polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) phenotypic groups and evaluate the role of AMH in predicting the severity of PCOS. STUDY DESIGN Cross-sectional, retrospective study. A total of 251 women were divided into four groups based on the main features of PCOS, as follows: Group 1 (polycystic ...
