Journal Title: Global Journal of Fertility and Research - Year 2017, Vol 2, Issue 1
Abstract
Objectives: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is the most common cause of anovulatory infertility. However, they sustained fertility at an advanced age. We aimed to evaluate ovarian reserve of the PCOS patients of advanced age and the control groups. Material and Methods: A total of 41 patients with PCOS and 28 normo-ovulatory women were included in the study. All subjects were aged 35–42 years. The 2003 Rotterdam criteria were referred, which diagnose PCOS in women possessing two or more of the following criteria: oligomenorrhoea or amenorrhoea; clinical and/or biochemical hyperandrogenism; and polycystic ovaries on ultrasonography. Other possible endocrine disorders were excluded. During the early follicular phase of spontaneous or progestin-induced menses blood samples were collected and antral follicles and ovarian volume were calculated using transvaginal ultrasonographic examinations.
