Does AMH Reflect Follicle Number Similarly in Women with and without PCOS?
CONTEXT Increased Anti-Mullerian Hormone in polycystic ovary syndrome, may be due to overactive follicles rather than reflect antral follicle count. OBJECTIVE Does Anti-Mullerian Hormone reflect antral follicle count similarly in women with or without polycystic ovary syndrome or polycystic ovarian morphology? DESIGN Cross-sectional, case-control. SETTING Women who delivered preterm in 19...
متن کاملHow Much Does AMH Really Vary in Normal Women?
Anti-Mullerian Hormone (AMH) is an ovarian hormone expressed in growing follicles that have undergone recruitment from the primordial follicle pool but have not yet been selected for dominance. It is considered an accurate marker of ovarian reserve, able to reflect the size of the ovarian follicular pool of a woman of reproductive age. In comparison to other hormonal biomarkers such as serum FS...
متن کاملSerum anti-Müllerian hormone levels remain high until late reproductive age and decrease during metformin therapy in women with polycystic ovary syndrome.
BACKGROUND Anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) is secreted by granulosa cells of ovarian early developing follicles and its serum levels have been shown to correlate with small antral follicle number. Since the pronounced androgen secretion from follicles/stroma in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) remains until late reproductive age, and since AMH reflects the number of antral follicles, it...
متن کاملPolycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS), Diagnostic Criteria, and AMH
The polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is the most common cause of anovulatory infertility and a notable proportion of women of reproductive age are affected. It may constitute a risk factor for cancer development. Different factors could result in different manifestations and many of these are related to predispositions. It is essential to establish criteria to achieve an exact diagnosis of PCOS...
متن کاملRelationship between follicle population, AMH concentration and fertility in cattle
The size of ovarian follicular population evaluated by direct antral follicular count or endocrine markers can help determine the success of reproductive biotechnologies in cattle. However, although highly repeatable within animal, the antral follicular population (AFP) appears to be greatly variable across individuals. Therefore, laboratory methods that reliably predict AFP could have a signif...
