Anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) levels fall during chemotherapy. Treatment-induced amenorrhoea is a reversible phenomenon, but few data are available on long-term AMH changes in breast cancer. The aim of the study was to describe serum AMH levels before, during and in the long term after chemotherapy, and to show a potential AMH recovery.

Objective: The aims of the present study were to analyze the long-term outcome related to APLS per se and to characterize the course of adrenal involvement.
Objective: Women with classical congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) exhibit reduced fertility due to several factors including anovulation. This has been attributed to a disturbed gonadotropic axis as in polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), but there is no precise evaluation. Our aim was to evaluate the gonadotropic axis and LH pulsatility patterns and to determine factor(s) that could account for the potential abnormality of LH pulsatility.

Objective: The aim of the study was to determine both the prevalence of and predictive factors for spontaneous resumption of ovarian function in POF patients.
Design And Setting: A mixed retrospective and prospective study was performed at a referral center for reproductive endocrinology.
