Which among the following hormone can be used as an indicator for ovarian reserve in a patient who presented with infeility?

A
FSH
B
LH/FSH ratio
C
LH
D

High-Yield Explanation
Because the number of growing follicles is correlated to the size of the primordial follicle pool size, a marker such as antimullerian hormone (AMH) or mullerian-inhibiting substance that reflects all follicles that have made the transition from the primordial follicle pool to the growing pool has been proposed to be a good indirect marker of ovarian reserve. FSH and inhibin B levels have also been proposed to serve as predictors of the ovarian reserve. Ref: Molina P.E. (2013). Chapter 9. Female Reproductive System. In P.E.
