Role of anti-müllerian hormone in female reproduction
Anti-müllerian hormone (AMH) is one of the most studied at the present time biologically active compounds. Its role in the processes of female reproduction is recognized as very significant, but specific functions, mechanisms for their implementation and regulation of the formation of the AMH itself remain the subject of research. In clinical practice, the determination of AMH levels is applicable in the context of predicting the response of ovaries to stimulation in assisted reproductive technology programs, as well as for predicting premature ovarian failure in women undergoing therapy potentially toxic to the ovaries. One of the promising areas is the assessment of the level of AMH as a method for predicting and diagnosing the polycystic ovary syndrome. Drug therapy can have a significant effect on the synthesis and secretion of AMH. As an agent directly and indirectly positively affecting the level of AMH, gonadoliberin analogues are isolated.
