AbstractThe aim of this study was to compare day-3 serum inhibin B levels of poor and good ovarian responders in the IVF-program. The study group consisted of 20 poor ovarian responders. The con trol group composed of 40 good ovarian responders who had similar demographic characteristics. The serum inhibin B levels were analysed by two-site-immunosorbent assay or sandwich ELISA (Enzyme Linked ImmunoSorbent Assay). The mean inhibin B level of the study group was 113.18 ± 57.96 picogram per millilitre and of the control group was 94.05 ± 61.81 picogram per millilitre. There was no statistically significant difference. The results might be useful as base-line data for further study.
