Primary ovarian insufficiency (POI) is defined as the development of primary (hypergonadotropic) hypogonadism before the age of 40 years. The diagnostic criteria of POI are irregular menses in women before the age of 40 years in association with follicle-stimulating hormone level in the ...
Primary ovarian insufficiency (POI) is a subclass of ovarian dysfunction in which the resting pool of primordial follicles is prematurely exhausted. It occurs through two major mechanisms: a pathologic process that causes follicle dysfunction or development of an inadequate initial pool of primordial ...
Primary ovarian insufficiency (POI) is the cessation of ovarian function before the age of 40. The causes of POI are heterogeneous, but substantial evidence exists to support a genetic basis of POI, particularly in the critical involvement of genes on the X chromosome. Recent studies have reveale...
Primary ovarian insufficiency (POI) or premature ovarian failure (POF), is a clinical syndrome that leads to the loss of ovarian activity before the age of 40 [1]. It is characterized by amenorrhea lasting more than four months, which results from increased follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) ...
Primary ovarian insufficiency (POI) is a syndrome of amenorrhoea, sex steroid deficiency, and elevated gonadotropins in a woman aged more than two standard deviations below the mean age for menopause estimated for her reference population. In practical terms, it occurs spontaneously in 1 % of ...
Primary ovarian insufficiency (POI) is a clinical syndrome of ovarian dysfunction characterized by premature exhaustion of primordial follicles. POI causes infertility, severe daily life disturbances and long-term health risks. However, the underlying me
Context: The etiology of primary ovarian insufficiency (POI) remains unknown in a majority of cases. Objective: We sought to identify genes causing POI. Design: The study was a familial genetic study. Setting: The study was performed in two academic institutions. Patients: We identified a consan...
Primary ovarian insufficiency (POI) manifests with hormonal imbalances, menstrual irregularities, follicle loss, and infertility. Mesenchymal stem cell-derived extracellular vesicles (MSC-EVs) are emerging as a promising treatment for POI. This systemati
Primary ovarian insufficiency (POI) is a disease defined as a reduction in ovarian function under the age of 40 and represents the main cause of female inf
Women with primary ovarian insufficiency (POI) may be more burdened by cardiovascular disease, such as myocardial infarction and stroke, as compared with women with normal menopause. The increased burden may be mediated by a worsening of cardiovascular risk factors, such as lipids, corresponding with...
