Premature premenopause does not decrease the quality of the ovules, scientifically confirmed

US researchers have published a study in 'Human Reproduction' confirming that premature premenopause, the depletion of the ovarian reserve, does not decrease the quality of the ovules as is the case with natural premenopause, as Dr. Jan Tesarik had observed a year ago in 'Journal of Gynecology and Women's Health'.

By analyzing the embryos from ovules of women with premature premenopause, they were able to observe that they have the same 'in vitro' development capacity, the same rate of chromosomal abnormalities or aneuploidy, and the same probability of giving birth than the ovules from women of the same age and with a normal ovarian reserve.

What is premature or early premenopause

Natural menopause is preceded by a progressive deterioration of the quantity and quality of persistent ovules in the ovaries. For this condition the term is often used premenopause, but there are women who enter menopause prematurely and, therefore, their premenopause also occurs at relatively early ages.

On average, the first symptoms of the premenopausal period occur between the ages of 40 and 45. In rare cases, the premature premenopause before age 40.

Less ovules but no less quality

Both studies (the one mentioned above a year ago and the current one) agree that the rates of low ovarian reserve, based on hormonal values ​​in the blood and the count of ovarian follicles performed by an ultrasound examination, "They only inform about the quantity of available ovules, but they do not reflect the quality of each one of them".

Assisted reproduction is effective in these women

According to the conclusions of the study published by the team of Jan Tesarik a year ago, assisted reproduction It is effective in women between 32 and 40 years old, even if these women have extremely low ovarian reserve rates.

"Assisted reproduction should not be underestimated in women under 40 years of age on the basis of low ovarian reserve indices, such as the concentration of antimullerian hormone in the blood or ovarian follicle count, performed by an ultrasound examination of the pelvis, "explained Tesarik.
