Inm-7: Genetic Etiologies of Premature Ovarian Failure
Premature Ovarian Failure (POF) defined as functional stop of ovaries before the age of 40. It is a common cause of infertility in women that characterized by primary or secondary amenorrhea, high gonadotropin levels and estrogen level declining in patients. Factors that reduce follicle or defect in the follicle growth stimulating mechanism defined as numerous complication factors that they can...
متن کاملOvarian aging and premature ovarian failure.
Physiological reproductive aging occurs as a result of a decrease in the number and quality of oocytes in ovarian cortex follicles. Although the reason for the decrease in the quality of the pool and follicular oocytes is not fully understood, endocrine, paracrine, genetic, and metabolic factors are thought to be effective. Nowadays, in order to understand the mechanisms of ovarian aging, genom...
متن کاملI-41: Genetic Causes of Premature Ovarian Failure (POF) and early Menopause
Premature ovarian failure (POF) is a heterogeneous disorder, defined as menopause under age 40 years. The prevalence is 1%; POF before age 30 years is much less common. Chromosomal causes have long been recognized - visible deletions of the X chromosome, 45,X/46,XX mosaicism, and autosomal rearrangements (balanced translocations). Toxins or iatrogenic causes (e.g., chemotherapeutic agents) are ...
متن کاملAutoimmune premature ovarian failure
Premature ovarian failure (POF), also termed as primary ovarian insufficiency (POI), is a highly heterogenous condition affecting 0.5-3.0% of women in childbearing age. These young women comprise quite a formidable group with unique physical and psychological needs that require special attention. Premature ovarian senescence (POS) in all of its forms evolves insidiously as a basically asymptoma...
متن کاملPremature ovarian failure
Premature ovarian failure is defined as a primary ovarian defect characterized by absent menarche (primary amenorrhea) or premature depletion of ovarian follicles/arrested folliculogenesis before the age of 40 years (secondary amenorrhea). Hormonally, POF is defined by abnormally low levels of estrogen and high levels of FSH, which demonstrate that the ovaries are no longer responding to circul...
