Background: A reduced reproductive lifespan is one of the most significant implications for girls with Turner syndrome (TS) and is due to an accelerated loss of ovarian insufficiency. Lately, there has been a surge in scientific research aimed at whether ovarian tissue cryopreservation (OTC) is a viable option for fertility preservation in girls with TS. This required a unilateral ovariectomy for girls with TS who may already have a poor ovarian reserve.<p...

Introduction: Turner syndrome (TS) significantly impacts the reproductive lifespan of affected girls due to premature ovarian insufficiency (POI). To improve fertility counseling for (parents of) girls with TS, it is important to predict the ovarian reserve at an early age. However, this is challenging since data on longitudinal hormone parameters related to ovarian function are scarce. This study aims to initiate a first step towards a prediction model for ov...
