Purpose Of Review: We provide an overview of new insights into the genetic causes of primary ovarian insufficiency (POI) and address the challenges faced by clinicians who care for adolescents with this condition.
Recent Findings: In most cases, the cause of POI remains a mystery after appropriate clinical testing has been completed. Large-scale genomic sequencing approaches are uncovering new mechanisms underlying the disorder.
