The study aimed to explore the role of anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH) in predicting the need for increased recombinant FSH (rFSH) dose in polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) women undergoing IVF/ICSI cycles. The results showed that increased AMH level was an independent factor for the need to increase the initial rFSH dose in PCOS patients. AMH could serve as a predictor of the need for initial rFSH dose.
BackgroundTo explore the role of anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH) in predicting the need to step up recombinant FSH (rFSH) dose following long GnRH agonist protocol in IVF/ICSI cycles of polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) women.MethodsThis is a retrospective cohort study of 825 PCOS women undergoing long GnRH agonist protocol enrolled from Jan 2019 to Dec 2021. The daily rFSH dose at which the first response to rFSH were recorded. The dose at which the first response to rFSH was based on folliculometry during follow up in which two or more follicles reached >= 11 mm. A receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was done to investigate the ability of AMH to predict the need to step up initial rFSH dose.ResultsPCOS women who needed to step up initial rFSH dose had a significantly higher AMH compared with those didn't step up initial rFSH dose (11.37 +/- 3.25ng/ml vs. 8.69 +/- 3.16ng/ml, p < 0.001). In multivariate logistic regression analysis, increased AMH level was an independent factor for the need to step up initial rFSH dose in PCOS patients after adjusted for confounding factors. ROC curve analysis showed AMH could predict the need to step up initial rFSH dose (AUC = 0.738, 95%CI: 0.704-0.773), having 75.4% specificity and 63% sensitivity when the threshold AMH concentration was 9.30ng/ml. 58.8% PCOS women with AMH > 9.30 ng/ml required increased rFSH dose compared to 18.8% of women with AMH <= 9.30ng/ml (p < 0.001). Although the clinical pregnancy rate and live birth rate were not significantly different, there was a higher incidence of OHSS among women with AMH > 9.30 ng/ml vs. AMH <= 9.30ng/ml (20.8% vs. 15.3%, p = 0.043).ConclusionPCOS women with AMH > 9.30 ng/ml were resistant to rFSH stimulation and require increased dose for the cycle recruitment of ovarian follicles.
