The effect of COVID-19 infection on anti mullerian hormone

Abstract

Aim: The possible impact of COVID-19 infection on female reproductive system is a controversial issue. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of COVID-19 infection on anti mullerian hormone (AMH) as a predictor of ovarian response to ovarian stimulation. Material and Method: This prospective study was conducted at a university-affiliated tertiary medical center between June 2021–February 2022. The study population included 79 reproductive-aged women (22-34 years) with COVID-19 infection. Blood samples were collected for AMH levels before COVID-19 infection and after three months of COVID-19 disease. Results: The mean age of the study group was 28.11±3.49 years. Estradiol and Luteinizing Hormone (LH) was found to be lower after three months of COVID-19 disease (p0.05). There was a statistically significant association between Pre-COVID-19 and Post-COVID-19 in terms of AMH (p
