Figure 4From: Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) supplementation in diminished ovarian reserve (DOR)Spontaneous pregnancy loss in spontaneous and IVF pregnancies at various AMH levels. The figure depicts at various AMH levels in the left column IVF pregnancies (IVF), as previously reported [Gleicher et al. (31)], and in the right column spontaneously conceived pregnancies (SP). Each column represents 100% of all pregnancies established, separated for live births (black section), voluntary termination of pregnancy (TOP; usually for aneuploidy) and spontaneous miscarriages (SAB). The figure demonstrates that at very low AMH levels (≤0.40 ng/mL) and at AMH ≥ 1.06 ng/mL. IVF pregnancies led to significantly higher live birth rates than spontaneously conceived DHEA pregnancies. Lowest pregnancy and live birth rates were observed with IVF and spontaneously between AMH 0.41-1.05 ng/mL, with no spontaneous DHEA pregnancies at all at AMH 0.81-1.05 ng/mL. While in IVF pregnancies miscarriage rates were clearly reduced at very low and at higher AMH, miscarriages appeared unaffected (~50%) in spontaneously conceived pregnancies.Back to article page
