Histerektomijos įtaka ankstyvojo kiaušidžių nepakankamumo rizikai. Mokslinės literatūros apžvalga /
… impact of hysterectomy on the risk of premature ovarian failure. It will broadly discuss ovarian function - folliculogenesis and endocrine function, the hormones produced and their impact on the female body systems, not limited to the reproductive system. Ovarian failure (menopause) - normal, …

Endocrine markers of ovarian function: Clinical and biological aspects with focus on Anti Müllerian hormone
… closely related to female fertility is the ovarian reserve, a term used to designate both quantitative as well as qualitative aspects of the remaining gametes in the female gonads. Despite a natural age-dependent decline in terms of the amount of gametes, a substantial variability exists …

Using human genomics to decipher biological mechanisms underlying reproductive ageing and fertility in women
Women are born with a non-renewable ovarian reserve, which is depleted throughout reproductive life. When this reserve is exhausted, they experience menopause and cease ovulating. Importantly, menopause timing is highly variable and can impact health outcomes in later life. One in 100 women …

Clinical and endocrine responses to ovarian hyperstimulation in flare and and luteal gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRHa) protocols
… Anti-Mullerian Hormone (AMH), a novel marker for ovarian reserve, was used as a tool to evaluate the ovarian responsiveness to stimulation. Methods: Women undergoing IVF/ICSI treatment in the UBC IVF Program from January to December 2006 using luteal and flare protocols were retrospectively …

TRANSCRIPTOME LANDSCAPE OF EARLY FOLLICULOGENESIS IN MAMMALS: UNLOCKING THE INTERPLAY MECHANISMS TO ENHANCE ART EFFICIENCY IN FERTILITY PRESERVATION
… only on a limited portion of the female gamete reserve, specifically the antral follicles. In contrast, the preantral follicle population, which represents 99% of the reserve, remains unexploited. To date, no established culture system has been successfully adopted to replicate folliculogenesis …

Rescue of ovarian function: stem cells and regenerative factors
… acquired damaging conditions lead to impaired ovarian function. Nevertheless, even when the ovaries lose their ability to ovulate, they might contain a residual pool of quiescent follicles that could be rescued. Soluble factors secreted by stem cells could provide an adequate ovarian …

Fertility preservation of ovarian germ cells: the horse and deer models
… The use of different animal models to study ovarian tissue cryopreservation will help to uncover several important factors related to germ cells preservation. Horses (Equus ferus caballus) have been proven to be an excellent model for reproductive biology studies with implications for humans. …

Values and Science: An Interdisciplinary Feminist Exploration
… two human fertility metrics: semen analysis and ovarian reserve testing. Drawing heavily on the literature and methods of feminist science studies, I argue that fertility metrics reflect and enact different gendered imperatives of reproductive responsibility. In doing so, I explicate one …

Isolation, characterisation and in vitro potential of Oogonial stem cells
… belief that women are born with a finite ovarian reserve has been debated for over a decade, ever since the discovery, and subsequent isolation, of purported oogonial stem cells (OSCs) from adult mammalian ovaries. This rare cell population has now been reported in the mouse, rat, pig, …

Ice, Ice, Baby? A Sociological Exploration of Social Egg Freezing
… preservation strategy which enables women to preserve a number of healthy unfertilised eggs for potential future use when faced with the threat of age-related fertility decline. The overall aim of this thesis was to explore how women understand, construct and experience social egg freezing in …
