Abstract

Background: Premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) will bring women early and long-term adverse consequences, including estrogen deficiency-related symptoms (hot flashes, sweating, decreased libido, insomnia, etc.) and significantly increases the risk of chronic diseases including Alzheimer's disease, cardiovascular disease and osteoporosis, along with increased risk of early death. More importantly, POI has greater harm to women’s fertility. Mostly the causes of POI are unknown. Most important are iatrogenic factors such as radiotherapy, chemotherapy and surgery, which increase the risk of POI.
