Anti-Müllerian hormone and polycystic ovary syndrome. Endokrynol Pol. 2016 Dec 05;: Authors: Łebkowska A, Kowalska I Abstract Anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) is a glycoprotein, a member of the transforming growth factor β family, reflecting the number of ovarian antral follicles. Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common endocrinopathy predisposing to infertility, metabolic and cardiovascular complications. In our review, we discuss the role of AMH in PCOS pathophysiology and its clinical applications according to the published studies. Improvement of AMH assay validity will allow to widen the clinical utility of this valuable biomarker. PMID: 27918066 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
