Effects of Maternal Antral Follicle Count in Bos Taurus Indicus Cattle on the Genetic Merit of Male Offspring and Antral Follicle Count of Female Offspring

Theriogenology, 2023
This study evaluated the effects of antral follicle count (AFC) in female cattle on offspring characteristics. Recently calved multiparous Bos indicus cows (Nelore; n = 222) were evaluated using ultrasonography on random days of their estrous cycle to determine the AFC and were classified into "low" (≤15 follicles), "intermediate" (≥16 and ≤ 29 ...

Is antral follicle count a genetic trait?

Menopause, 2010
The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between maternal age of menopause and antral follicle count.This was a cross-sectional study of 124 women aged 25 to 48 years presenting with infertility. Women reported their mother's age of menopause and underwent transvaginal ultrasound to assess antral follicle count.

138 Relationships Between Antral Follicle Count, Ovarian Volume, Pre-Antral Follicle Number, and Oocyte Quality

Reproduction, Fertility and Development, 2017
The objective was to evaluate the possible relationships between AFC, ovarian volume, ovarian follicle reserve and oocyte quality in abattoir-derived ovaries (experiment 1) and in cows (experiment 2) submitted to OPU. Antral follicle counts of =25, 16 to 24, and = 16 were used to define AFC classes as high (HAFC), intermediate (IAFC), and low (LAFC) in

Relationships between antral follicle count and reproductive characteristics of embryo-recipient mares

Journal of Equine Veterinary Science, 2023
Mares (n = 77) were evaluated by antral follicle count (AFC) and selected as embryo recipients. Cyclic recipients received embryos between days 4-6 after ovulation. The acyclic recipients received an intramuscular (i.m.) protocol with 5mg of estradiol benzoate (EB) on the day of donor ovulation (D0; D-4 recipient), 3mg of EB on the following day (D1; D-

Assessing ovarian response: antral follicle count versus anti-Müllerian hormone

Reproductive BioMedicine Online, 2015
Oocyte number and quality decline with age; however, fertility varies significantly even among women of the same age. Various measures have been developed to predict response to ovarian stimulation and reproductive potential. Evaluation of ovarian reserve can identify patients who may experience poor response or hyper-response to exogenous ...

Transcriptomic analysis of heifers according to antral follicle count

Theriogenology
While antral follicle count (AFC) has been associated with higher pregnancy rates, at present, our understanding of it as a reproductive parameter remains incomplete. This study aimed to characterize gene expression profile of oocytes from crossbred Bos taurus x Bos indicus heifers with high and low AFCs.

Antral Follicle Count and Serum Follicle-Stimulating Hormone Levels to Assess Functional Ovarian Age

Obstetrics & Gynecology, 2004
The objective of this study was 2-fold. The first was to estimate side-to-side variation in antral follicle counts. The second was to determine whether basal follicle-stimulating hormone levels on days 2, 3, and 4 of the same menstrual cycle are significantly different.Forty-one patients between the ages of 20 and 42 years undergoing monitoring for in ...

Effect of different types of ovarian cyst on antral follicle count

Fertility and Sterility, 2010
We compared antral follicle count in ovaries harboring different types of cysts to the contralateral normal ovaries. Besides endometrioma, the presence of other types of ovarian cysts does not influence the antral follicle count.

Ovarian volume and antral follicle counts as indicators of menopausal status

Menopause, 2001
Recent studies suggest that ovarian volume and antral follicle numbers may be sensitive, specific, and early indicators of menopausal status. The accuracy of these markers, however, has not been compared directly to more traditional markers [age and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) levels].
