Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is an anovulatory disorder characterized by excess androgen production and increased LH secretion. Serum anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH) is also elevated in this disorder. Women with PCOS exhibit a positive correlation between AMH and LH levels and recent in vitro data demonstrate that LH can directly stimulate AMH production by granulosa cells from women with PCOS.
