Descriptor insuficiencia ovárica primaria
Entry term(s) insuficiencia ovárica prematura
síndrome del ovario resistente
síndrome del ovario resistente a gonadotrofinas
síndrome del ovario resistente a las gonadotropinas
Scope note: Cese de la función ovárica que ocurre después de la MENARQUIA pero antes de los 40 años de edad, con o sin depleción de los folículos ováricos. Se caracteriza por la presencia de OLIGOMENORREA o AMENORREA, GONADOTROPINAS elevadas y concentraciones bajas de ESTRADIOL. Es un estado de HIPOGONADISMO hipergonadotrópico. Entre las causas se encuentran defectos genéticos, procesos autoinmunitarios, la quimioterapia, la radiación e infecciones. La causa genética conocida más frecuente es la expansión de una repetición CGG a entre 55 y 199 copias en la región 5' no traducida del gen FMR1 ligado al cromosoma X.

Scope note: Cessation of ovarian function after MENARCHE but before the age of 40, without or with OVARIAN FOLLICLE depletion. It is characterized by the presence of OLIGOMENORRHEA or AMENORRHEA, elevated GONADOTROPINS, and low ESTRADIOL levels. It is a state of female HYPERGONADOTROPIC HYPOGONADISM. Etiologies include genetic defects, autoimmune processes, chemotherapy, radiation, and infections. The most commonly known genetic cause is the expansion of a CGG repeat to 55 to 199 copies in the 5' untranslated region in the X-linked FMR1 gene.

It is characterized by the presence of OLIGOMENORRHEA or AMENORRHEA, elevated GONADOTROPINS, and low ESTRADIOL levels. It is a state of female HYPERGONADOTROPIC HYPOGONADISM.

Gonadotropin-Resistant Ovary Syndrome - Narrower
Concept UI M0025371
Scope note A form of ovarian failure, caused by resistance to GONADOTROPINS stimulation. It may be caused by defects in the receptors for FOLLICLE STIMULATING HORMONE or LUTEINIZING HORMONE. It may be due to factors interfering with the actions of gonadotropins, such as antibodies blocking the ligand-receptor interaction.
