The current age related nomogram presented a steady decline in AFC that became significant after 35 years in otherwise healthy women with regular menstrual bleeding. Those percentiles might be used as a reference guide to point out the current status of ovarian reserve for a given woman. Additionally, producing nomogram might enforce using percentiles instead of constant thresholds to define various medical conditions such as polycystic ovarian morphology or diminished ovarian reserve. However, longitudinal data with larger sample size are still needed for the validation of those percentiles.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
