I-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 کاملBeneficial Effects of Tibolone on Sexual Dysfunction in Women with Premature Ovarian Failure (POF)
Introduction: Premature Ovarian Failure (POF) is cessation of ovarian functions before the age of 40 years old with consequent cessation of menstruation. Objective of study: The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between Premature Ovarian Failure and sexual dysfunctions and outcome of management with tibolone. Patients and Methods: Thirty-one women with Premature Ovarian Failure ...
متن کاملChromosomal abnormalities & oxidative stress in women with premature ovarian failure (POF)
BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVES Premature ovarian failure (POF) is defined as the cessation of ovarian function under the age of 40 yr and is characterized by amenorrhoea, hypoestrogenism and elevated serum gonadotrophin levels. The cause of POF remains undetermined in majority of the cases. This study was aimed to investigate the type and frequency of cytogenetic abnormalities in patients with idiopat...
متن کاملScreening of FSH receptor gene in Argentine women with premature ovarian failure (POF).
Diverse mutations in FSH-receptor (FSHR) gene have been described as possible cause of premature ovarian failure (POF). To investigate the presence of mutations and/or polymorphisms in FSHR gene, DNA from 20 POF, 5 of which were diagnosed as resistant ovary syndrome (ROS), and from 44 controls was isolated from peripheral lymphocytes. The complete coding sequence was analysed by PCR followed by...
متن کاملBMP15 and GDF9 Gene Mutations in Premature Ovarian Failure
BACKGROUND Premature ovarian failure (POF) is an ovarian defect characterized by the premature depletion of ovarian follicles before the age of 40, representing one major cause of female infertility. Mutations in bone morphogenetic protein 15 (BMP15) and growth differentiation factor 9 (GDF9) have been shown to be associated with POF. METHODS Genomic DNA was isolated from 52 idiopathic premat...
