Abstract: Background: ABO blood groups association with ovarian reserve had been remains controversial in previous studies. The aim of this study was to assess the association of ABO blood type with ovarian reserve in infertile women attending a tertiary care centre in North India.
Methods: This is a hospital based retrospective study of the 241 infertile women of under 40 years, who attended the infertility clinic at a tertiary care centre in North India between January 2016 and January 2018 at a tertiary care centre in North India. Patient were divided into two groups depends on the FSH levels, Group 1: FSH level <10 IU/L and Group two: FSH ≥10 IU/L. The correlation between the patients FSH level and ABO blood group were seen. Continuous variable´s presented in mean±SD while categorical variables presented in frequency (%).
Results: There was variation in age, FSH, LH, TSH and AMH levels between two groups (Group 1, FSH <10 and Group 2, FSH ≥10), which was significant (p<0.05). FSH was corelated with different ABO blood group, but it was not significant (p>0.05).
Conclusions: LH and AMH were found significantly predictors of the ovarian reserve. There was no association found between ABO blood group type with Ovarian reserve in infertile women.
