Abstract
The evolution of biochemical methods to measure AMH allowed to obtain increasingly precise and reliable values of this marker of ovarian reserve. The Elecsys® AMH assay is an ELISA-type immunoassay based on electrochemiluminescence (EQL) technology and represents one of the most robust diagnostic methods for measuring this hormone. Elecsys® AMH assay could allow the analysis of the relationship between the number of oocytes obtained in a follicular puncture after controlled ovarian stimulation (COS) with AMH levels, when they are lower than 1 ng/ml, a value below which the ovarian response could not be predicted with sufficient confidence. We aimed to establish the diagnostic sensitivity of the Elecsys°AMH method when the hormone level is less than 1 ng/ml in relation to the number of oocytes recovered in follicular punctures. Specifically, determine if there are differences in the number of oocytes obtained depending on the concentration of AMH in the sample: less than 0.49 ng/ml and between 0.50 – 0.99 ng/ml
