varian reserve is a term referring to a woman’s current supply of eggs, and is closely associated with reproductive potential. In general, the greater the number of remaining eggs, the better the chance for conception. Conversely, low ovarian reserve greatly diminishes a patient’s chances for conception (Perloe et al., 2000).
With increasing age there is a decline in a woman’s reproductive function, which is assumed to be determined by the decline of the ovarian follicle pool and the quality of the oocytes within (ovarian reserve) (te Vedle, 2002).
Menopause is reached at a median age of 51 years, when the follicle pool is almost depleted (Faddy et al., 1992).
Given the considerable individual variability in age at menopause, it is plausible that the process of follicle decline shows a comparable variability (Treloar, 1981).
The pool of primordial follicles in the ovary is related to the number of growing antral follicles. Antral follicles are responsive to gonadotrophin stimulation and the measure of ovarian reserve can be defined as the total number of follicles which can,be stimulated to grow under maximal stimulation.
