Association of bioavailable inhibin B and oocyte yield in controlled ovarian stimulation.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

To determine if the biologically active or bioavailable inhibin B (bio-inhB) correlated with the oocyte yield in controlled ovarian stimulation (COS).

Design

Cross-sectional study.

Setting

Academic center.

Patients

Women undergoing oocyte cryopreservation.

Interventions

None.

Main outcome measures

Serum of women were sampled to measure bio-inhB at three points: baseline ("start"); middle ("mid"); and end of COS. A validated, highly specific enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (Ansh Labs, Webster, TX) measured bio-inhB. The Spearman tests analyzed correlations between bio-inhB and other ovarian reserve markers, including age, follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), antral follicle count (AFC), and antimüllerian hormone (AMH), and correlations b
