OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the relationship between hysterectomy with and without ovarian conservation and the onset of ovarian failure using anti-müllerian hormone (AMH) levels and imputed final menstrual period (FMP). METHODS: A total of 1,4…

BACKGROUND: A test that helps predict the time to the final menstrual period (FMP) has been sought for many years. OBJECTIVE: To assess the ability of antimullerian hormone (AMH) measurements to predictions the time to FMP. DESIGN: Prospe…
