State ovarian reserve in girls with dysfunction of the hypothalamus in puberty

Abstract

One measure of ovarian reserve is inhibin B, which reflects the basal secretion of FSH and the hormone is produced only in the sensitive phase of growth of the follicle. A survey of 122 girls with hypothalamic dysfunction, showed a reduction in ovarian reserve in girls with DW, based on the reduction of inhibin B in the calculation of the number of antral follicles, due to high levels of FSH. Lower levels of inhibin B in girls with DG is probably the result of dysfunction of the hypothalamic-pituitary system.
