Measurement of Different Anti-Müllerian Hormone Isoforms in Expected Poor Responders

The study has a prospective observational multicentric design and the investigators aim to investigate the presence of AMH isoforms and the levels of Inhibin B in serum among a population of participants with low ovarian reserve (AMH blood test below 1.1 ng/ml). Transvaginal scan for AFC and blood drawn from participants will be obtained on day 2-3 of menstrual period. The serum will be divided for AMH analysis using different assays: Elecsys Cobas assay for AMH and AnshLabs AMH isoforms specific assays (picoAMH 24/32 Pro-Mature, 24/37 Midpro-Midpro, 17/15 Mature-Mature and 10/24 Pro-Midpro) and AnshLabs Inhibin B ELISA. Clinically it is not uncommon to see a discrepancy between the AFC count and the levels of AMH; this could be potentially explained by the presence of different AMH isoforms not measured with conventional commercial assays. Also, the evaluation of Inhibin B may be helpful for ovarian reserve assessment. Quantitation of specific Isoforms of AMH by different ELISA methods will investigate a possible relationship(s) between specific isoforms of AMH and poor responders.
