Does large endometrioma per se increase AMH level?

چکیده
Women with endometriosis, especially those endometrioma, present a considerable challenge for ovarian reserve appraisal. This diagnostic difficulty arises from several fundamental questions inherently linked to patient management: the potential influence of endometrioma on reserve; adverse effect surgery and adequacy established biomarkers, anti-Müllerian hormone antral follicle count, appraise accurately in these women. Until recently, key argument was that development growth endometriomas is associated progressive damage normal tissue, resulting concomitant reduction serum AMH levels. Contrary this widely accepted position; recent studies have reported that, women no previous history surgery, levels were increased large endometriomas. These findings are surprising and, if replicated, would substantial clinical implications. In commentary, we would, however, urge caution before reports lead systematic changes practice, recommend urgent replication as finding linking high seems be biologically implausible, contradicts existing extensive body research.

Endometrioma ≤3 cm in diameter per se does not affect ovarian reserve in intracytoplasmic sperm injection cycles.
BACKGROUND Our aim was to determine the effect of single endometriomas ≤3 cm in diameter per se on ovarian reserve in intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) cycles. METHODS We enrolled 19 consecutive infertile patients (29 cycles) who had unilateral single endometriomas ≤3 cm in diameter and who underwent ICSI. RESULTS The mean age of the patients was 33.3 ± 4.9 years. The mean diameter of...

OBJECTIVES To determine whether a selective increase of visceral adipose tissue content will result in insulin resistance. METHODS Sympathetic denervation of the omental fat was performed under general inhalant anesthesia by injecting 6-hydroxydopamine in the omental fat of lean mongrel dogs (n = 11). In the conscious animal, whole-body insulin sensitivity was assessed by the minimal model (S...

متن کاملOvarian endometrioma is associated with increased AMH levels
Printed by Summary It is believed that endometriosis has significant damaging effect on ovarian reserve. With regards to the effect of endometrioma on AMH levels, currently available evidence provides conflicting views; ranging significantly lower AMH measurements in smaller studies, to no association between AMH and endometrioma in more robust studies (Uncu et. al. 2013, Hwu et. al. 2013, Stre...
