Background: Anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH) has been suggested as a marker of ovarian reserve and predictor of ovarian response to controlled ovarian hyper stimulation. The aim of this study is to determine the role of AMH in prediction of success ART cycles in patients with normal FSH serum levels. Materials and Methods: This prospective cohort study included 80 infertile women under 4o years, wh...

conclusions the inhibition of mini-puberty period in male rats was demonstrated to have an effect on their testicular function to some extent. results serum t and lh levels peaked at two hours after birth, while fsh peaked at hour 0, and bilateral testicular weight peaked at four hours after birth. the rats that underwent ether inhalation five minutes after birth had markedly reduced serum horm...

Objective(s): The current study aimed to assess cisplatin-mediated ovarian apoptosis in a rat model by Royal jelly (RJ). Materials and Methods: Thirty female adult albino rats (180-200 g) were divided into three groups (n=10): saline (0.9% NaCl, IP) was given to the control group, the cisplatin group: received (5 mg/kg/once a week IP) fo...

Anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH) is mainly involved in the regression of Mullerian ducts in male fetuses, but it may have other functions linked to gonadal development. The present study examines the effect of AMH on steroidogenesis by Sertoli and Leydig cells in fetal and immature rats during the period where AMH is physiologically produced in the testis. The basal aromatase activity of Sertoli ce...

background: polycystic ovarian syndrome (pcos) is a common endocrinopathy that accompanied with long term complications. the early diagnosis of this syndrome can prevent it. objective: the aim was to determine the role of anti-mullerian hormon (amh) in pcos diagnosis and to find cut off level of it. materials and methods: in this cross sectional study, 117 women between 20-40 years old were par...

BACKGROUND Detection of best predictor of ovarian reserve in patients with temporarily or consistently elevated early follicular phase serum levels of FSH is one of the most important goals in assisted reproductive technique (ART). OBJECTIVE To evaluate whether high level of anti-mullerian hormone level is related to success of ART in patients with temporarily or consistently elevated early f...

BACKGROUND Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is characterized by increased ovarian angiogenesis and vascularity. Accumulating evidence indicates that vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is increased in PCOS and may play an important role in these vascular changes and the pathogenesis of this disease. Placental growth factor (PlGF), a VEGF family member, has not been previously characteri...

BACKGROUND A variety of indicators of potentially successful ovarian stimulation cycles are available, including biomarkers such as anti-Mullerian hormone. The aim of our study was to confirm the usefulness of serum anti-Mullerian hormone assay in predicting ovarian response and reproductive outcome in women eligible for ART cycles. MATERIALS Forty-six women undergoing ART cycles at the Centr...
