Reduced ovarian reserve associated with increased risk of trisomic...(we studied a relatively small number of ...),Health

Date:6/30/2009

we studied a relatively small number of women, our results should be interpreted as an indication and not as proof of a relation between ovarian reserve and trisomy risk. We have to confirm our findings in a different IVF cohort first and than determine the exact extent of the increase in trisomy risk. Then the next step would be to study our hypothesis in a fertile group of women, since results from women having IVF cannot be extrapolated to the general population right away. If our findings are indeed confirmed, women with reduced ovarian reserve should be informed about their 'new' trisomy risk. It's perceivable this may influence their choices in prenatal testing."
