Ovarian response to follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) stimulation depends on the FSH receptor genotype.

Because the ovarian response to FSH stimulation in assisted reproduction is variable, ranging from hyporesponse to hyperresponse, with the possible complication of ovarian hyperstimulation, it would be of great benefit to predict the response of the patients to FSH. To date, no clear-cut predictors of ovarian responsiveness to FSH have been identified. In this study, we investigated the role of...

Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteninizing hormone (LH) in the urine of prepubertal children.

Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH) have been measured by specific bioassays in pooled urine samples from prepubertal children, aged 2-6 yr, and from male adults. For children the mean urinary excretion of FSH was 2.2 U 2nd International Reference Preparation (2nd IRP) per liter and the mean urinary excretion of LH was 0.44 U 2nd IRP per liter. For adults the mean FS...

Discordances between follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) and anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) in female infertility

BACKGROUND Follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) and anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) represent the two most frequently utilized laboratory tests in determining ovarian reserve (OR). This study determined the clinical significance of their concordance and discordance in female infertility patients. METHODS We investigated 366 consecutive infertility patients (350 reached IVF), excluding women with p...

Bioactive Follicle-Stimulating Hormone

Specific and sensitive in vitro bioassays suitable for measurement of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) in small quantities of serum and urine have recently been validated. Comparisons of bioassay (B-FSH) potencies with immunoassay (I-FSH) estimates and chromatofocusing patterns have facilitated new discoveries regarding the regulation of FSH biosynthesis, storage, secretion, serum concentrati...
