2 Ovarian Reserve?

3 The Wallace-Kelsey Model (Five parameter asymmetric double-gaussian cumulative curve) Wallace &Kelsey (2010) PloS ONE ESHRE Lille 2012

4 Ovarian reserve: Conception to Menopause Wallace &Kelsey (2010) PloS ONE

5 Percentage of NGF population remaining with increasing age Wallace &Kelsey (2010) PloS ONE

6 Ovarian reserve: Conception to Menopause Bella Anna Wallace &Kelsey (2010) PloS ONE

7 Prediction of Ovarian Reserve (AMH) Anti Mullerian Hormone (AMH) is an important product of the adult ovary produced by the granulosa cells of small growing follicles AMH has little variation across and between menstrual cycles AMH is the best currently available marker of the number of small-growing follicles in the ovary But there was no validated reference model for AMH available Anderson Nelson Wallace (2011) Maturitas

8 A validated model of serum antimullerian hormone (AMH) from conception to menopause Kelsey et al. PLoS ONE 2011

9 AMH: Normogram from birth to menopause The green and blue lines are the 68% and 95% prediction limits for the model Kelsey et al. PLoS ONE 2011

12 Summary AMH is detectable before puberty AMH falls rapidly during cancer treatment in both pre-pubertal and pubertal girls AMH levels recover in those patients at low/medium risk of gonadotoxicity AMH fails to recover in those at high risk. This could be indicative of future reproductive impairment Brougham et al 2012 JCE&M

According to my understanding it had to be separate to the main C1 trial in UK because of all the ethical issues surrounding the information collected in the context of a treatment protocol. Therefore the issue is not one of a backlog of data but in fact a low level of recruitment to this separate Fertility Study. Kind regards Janis 16
