Abstract EN
Sixty women with age ranges from (18-40) years have been involved in this study, divided into two groups ; the first group involved 30 women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and the second group involved 30 women without PCOS.
The descriptive data [age, weight, and height] and reproductive history [age at menarche, duration of menarche, age at marriage, duration of marriage, age at first childbirth and parity] have been recorded.
Blood samples were collected to determine the levels of anti-mullerian hormone (AMH) and follicle stimulating hormone (FSH).
The results showed a significant (p<0.05) increase in AMH levels in women with PCOS compared with women without PCOS, while there were non-significant (p>0.05) differences in FSH levels between women with PCOS and women without PCOS.
Regarding the correlation between AMH levels and other studied parameters, a non-significant correlation was found between AMH levels on one hand and age, the value of BMI, and duration of menarche on the other hand in women with PCOS, while a significant negative correlation was found in women without PCOS.
A significant positive correlation was observed between AMH levels and duration of marriage in women with PCOS, while a significant negative correlation was found in women without PCOS.
A significant negative correlation was found between AMH levels and age at first child birth in women with PCOS, while a non-significant correlation was found in women without PCOS.
Concerning the correlation between FSH levels and other studied parameters, a non-significant correlation was found between FSH levels on one hand and age, duration of menarche and duration of marriage on the other hand in women with PCOS, while a significant positive correlation was found in women without PCOS.
In conclusion, the measurement of serum AMH could be a useful tool for diagnosing PCOS and for assessing ovarian ageing.
