In our study, we aimed to compare reproductive health parameters (RHP), previous pregnancy complications and outcomes, and ovarian reserve (OR) assessed by the anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH) in CD patients with healthy controls. In CD patients, we also compared OR according to disease phenotypes. Consecutive pre-menopausal women with CD from two IBD centers were included. The control group consisted of age and BMI-matched healthy controls. We used a questionnaire that included RHP, CD phenotype, and CD activity. Serum AMH was assessed by the Elecsys AMH plus essay. We enrolled 50 patients and 56 controls with a median age of 31 years. All CD patients were in clinical remission. We observed no difference in RHP or AMH (median 2.6 vs. 2.1 ug\/l, \np = 0.98), or the proportion of low OR (AMH&lt;1,77, 38 vs. 41.1 %, p=0.84). The slope of age-related decrease did not differ between the groups. The subgroup of CD patients after surgery and those older than 30 years with CD for &gt;5years had a steeper decrease in AMH (slope -0.12 vs. -0.29, p = 0.04 and -0.31 vs. -0.2, p = 0.029). In a multivariate analysis, age was the single independent predictor of low OR (OR=1.25). In women with Crohn\u2019s disease, once the disease activity is under control, the reproductive health and ovarian reserve do not substantially differ from healthy controls.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.33549\/physiolres.934776","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,12,13]],"date-time":"2021-12-13T20:12:41Z","timestamp":1639426361000},"page":"S69-S78","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":17,"title":["Ovarian Reserve Assessed by the Anti-Mullerian Hormone and Reproductive Health Parameters in Women With Crohn\u00b4s Disease, a Case-Control Study"],"prefix":"10.33549","author":[{"given":"T.","family":"Koller","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"5th Department of Internal Medicine, Comenius University Faculty of Medicine, University Hospital Bratislava, Bratislava, Slovakia. tomas.koller@fmed.uniba.sk"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"J.","family":"Kollerov\u00e1","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"T.","family":"Hlavat\u00fd","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"B.","family":"Kadle\u010dkov\u00e1","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"J.","family":"Payer","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"19169","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,12,8]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref0","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","unstructured":"\u010eURICOV\u00c1 D, KR\u00c1TKA Z, BORTLIK M, SLAB\u00c1 L, STRNADOV\u00c1 K, KOV\u00c1\u0158OV\u00c1 T, LUKAS M, PFEIFEROV\u00c1 M: Inflammatory bowel disease has a negative impact on patients reproductive behaviour: the first multicentre survey in the Czech Republic.
