Abstract :

 Objective To determine improvement in S.AMH concentration after oral DHEA administration. Method The study was conducted on 72 infertile women of 20–45 years age who had S.AMH < 2.2 ng/ml.The cases were divided into two groups Group A (36) received oral DHEA 25mg TDS and those in Group B (36) received folic acid 5mg OD for 12 weeks. Day 2 S.FSH ,S.LH ,S.E2 , S.AMH , S.Inhibin B, ovarian volume and AFC were measured at first visit and after 12 weeks of medication.Result After 12 weeks of oral DHEA supplementation,S.AMH concentration was found to be significantly improved (p=0.01). Conclusion DHEA improves the S.AMH concentration suggesting that this molecule can raise the fertility quotient in women with diminished ovarian function.
