Correlation between Serum Anti-Müllerian Hormone Levels and Antral follicle count in prediction of clinical pregnancy in women with unexplained infertility undergoing ICSI cycles

Abstract

Background: It is obvious that after years of publications worldwide. The question of whether the serum level of AMH predicts pregnancy after ICSI still unresolved. In the present study the correlation between serum AMH levels and pregnancy rate in a population of women undergoing their first ICSI cycle is investigated.Objective: We assess accuracy of serum anti-mullerian hormone levels and anti follicle count in prediction of clinical pregnancy in women with unexplained infertility and undergoing ICSI cycles. Patients and Methods: This is a retrospectively study in assisted reproductive technology unit at Maternity Hospital – Ain Shams University from August 2018 to June 2019. This study included 71 women with unexplained primary infertility in ART unit undergoing ICSI cycles. Simple random sampling. Results: we included (patients with unexplained primary infertility who underwent their first ICSI cycle aged 20-35 years with BMI ≤ 30 without associated medical problems as diabetes mellitus, hypertension and polycystic ovary. Serum AMH was measured within 3 months before the beginning of the ICSI cycle, ovarian stimulation was carried out, and all embryos transfer were carried out on a fresh cycle. Conclusion: In this study it was found that as the AMH level increases, the number of oocytes increases as well, but it is not a predictor of oocyte quality or pregnancy rate.
