Abstract

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is the most common form of normogonadotropic ovarian insufficiency, hyperandrogenaemy and anovulation sterility. One of the probable causes of this disease is disturbance of folliculogenesis, which is accompanied by overproduction of anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH) by ovarian tissue. There is a literature review about structure, biological properties and the role of AMH in pathogenesis of PCOS in this article.
