Dietary factors and serum antimullerian hormone concentrations in late premenopausal women.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

To study the associations between dietary factors and circulating antimüllerian hormone (AMH) concentrations among late premenopausal women.

Design

AMH concentrations were measured in serum samples collected at enrollment from 296 women (aged 35-45 years) in the Sister Study cohort. Usual dietary intakes in the past 12 months were assessed using a validated food frequency questionnaire. Dietary exposures of interest included macronutrients, dietary fat subtypes, fiber, and glycemic index. Multivariable linear regression was used to evaluate associations between dietary variables and serum AMH concentrations. We also used nutrient density models to examine isocaloric replacement of macronutrients.

Setting

Not applicable.

Patients

Women aged 35-45 years.

Interventions

Not applicable.

Main outcome measures

Serum AMH concentrations in nanograms per milliliter (ng/mL).

Results

AMH concentrations were positively associated with percentage of energy from carbohydrates (β per 5% calories = 0.141 [95% CI 0.023, 0.259]; P trend = .019), and inversely associated with percentage of energy from fat (β per 5% calories = -0.152 [95% CI -0.299, -0.004]; P trend = .044). In analyses of dietary fat subtypes, AMH decreased with increasing monounsaturated fatty acids (P trend = .082) and polyunsaturated fatty acids (P trend = .043), particularly ω-6 fatty acids (P trend = .044), whereas no strong trend was observed for saturated fatty acids. Protein and alcohol intake were not strongly associated with AMH.

Conclusions

Our cross-sectional analyses in a sample of late premenopausal women suggest that dietary fat intake may be inversely associated with circulating AMH concentrations. Further research in prospective studies is warranted to evaluate dietary factors as potential modifiers of ovarian reserve.

Project description:BackgroundEndometrial proliferative lesions (EPL) usually refer to endometrial hyperplasia (EH) and endometrial cancer (EC). Among patients with premenopausal EPL who wish to preserve their fertility, only those with EH and early-stage EC have the possibility to undergo fertility preservation therapy. However, there is currently a lack of specific and reliable screening criteria and models for identifying these patients.MethodsThis study utilized a retrospective diagnostic study design. The training set included medical record information that met the criteria between August 2017 and October 2022, while the validation set consisted of medical record information that met the criteria from November 2022 to May 2023. The endometrial pathological test served as the gold standard. The serum anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH) level before endometrial sampling and a regression model were employed to predict EPL.ResultsThe study included a total of 1209 patients with PCOS (1119 in the control group and 90 in the endometrial proliferative lesion group) and 5366 women without PCOS (5249 in the control group and 117 in the proliferative lesion group). In the case of PCOS patients aged 20-39 years, the most effective screening threshold for AMH was found to be a serum AMH level of ≤5.39 ng/mL. The model used for this group was logit(p) = -2.562 - 0.430 × AMH + 0.127 × BMI + 1.512 × hypertension + 0.956 × diabetes -1.145 × regular menstruation. On the other hand, for non-PCOS women aged 20-39 years, the optimal screening threshold for AMH was determined to be a serum AMH value of ≤2.18 ng/mL. The model used for this group was logit(p) = -3.778 - 0.823 × AMH + 0.176 × BMI + 2.660 × diabetes -1.527 × regular menstruation -1.117 × dysmenorrhea. It is important to note that all of these findings have successfully passed internal verification.ConclusionFor PCOS and non-PCOS women aged 20-39 years, the serum AMH test and related multiple regression models were obtained for the warning of EPL.
