Apoptosis causes follicle atresia before they become capable of ovulation and is responsible for regression of the corpora lutea. The apoptotic process in corpora lutea is crucial for preserving cyclicity and for ensuring the release of progesterone during the menstrual cycle [1, 16, 17, 19–21]....
It decreases gradually in adult females & becomes undetectable by the time of menopause. In comparison to other hormonal biomarkers such as serum FSH& LH, low intra cycle & inter cycle variability has been seen in serum AMH. Variability in AMH values in a female can be inter-individual or ...
Other protein systems are involved: activin orchestrates FSH/LH receptor levels, estrogen synthesis, and oocyte maturation; follistatin inhibits activin-induced responses – the discussion of the finer points of their actions falls out with the scope of this more generic chapter and the reader is ...
We retrospectively studied a real-life population of 1470 women undergoing IVF, with poor/suboptimal/normal ovarian responsiveness to controlled ovarian stimulation (COS), comparing the cumulative live birth rate (cLBR) when COS was performed using rFSH alone or rFSH + rLH in a 2:1 ratio. Ov...
