Anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) has been implicated in the pathogenesis of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). The aim of this study was to measure circulating AMH before laparoscopic ovarian diathermy (LOD) to evaluate its prognostic value for an ovulatory response and to investigate AMH changes after LOD to further explore the effects of LOD.
