Ripe for the taking – leveraging big data to estimate ovarian reserve

Elucidating the impact of cancer treatments on ovarian reserve is central to fertility preservation decisions, but longitudinal measures of ovarian reserve markers like anti-mullerian hormone (AMH) in traditional prospective cohort studies are challenged by cost, sample size, and follow up. We hypothesized that AMH trajectories derived from administrative health claims data would differ by breast cancer status and chemotherapy exposures.
