Abstract
Introduction: The most common complication of chemotherapy is infertility due to premature ovarian failure (POF). POF is defined as the loss of normal ovarian function before age 40, characterized by increased gonadotropin levels, decreased estradiol levels, and diminished ovarian reserve, often leading to infertility. Despite the high impact of POF on general health and quality of life, the pathophysiology of this disease is unclear. For this purpose, animal models provide us with the opportunity to hypothetically investigate the pathogenesis of the disease comprehensively. The most common method of creating an animal model of premature ovarian failure is the use of chemotherapy drugs. In this study, the types of chemotherapy drugs and the relevant molecular pathways that play a role in creating the premature ovarian failure model in mice will be investigated Conclusion: According to the studies, cyclophosphamide drug is introduced as the most common gonadotoxic drug in order to induce POF model in mice.
