OBJECTIVE: This review aimed to appraise data on prediction of age @entity7793 ( @entity7793 ) based on antim  llerian hormone ( @entity248 ), antral follicle count (AFC), and mother's @entity7793 to evaluate clinical usefulness and to identify directions for further research. METHODS: We conducted three systematic reviews of the literature to identify studies of menopause prediction based on @entity248 , AFC, or mother's @entity7793 , corrected for baseline age. RESULTS: Six studies selected in the search for @entity248 all consistently demonstrated @entity248 as being capable of predicting @entity7793 (hazard ratio, 5.6-9.2). The sole study reporting on mother's @entity7793 indicated that @entity248 was capable of predicting @entity7793 (hazard ratio, 9.1-9.3). Two studies provided analyses of AFC and yielded conflicting results, making this marker less strong. CONCLUSIONS: @entity248 is currently the most promising marker for @entity7793 prediction. The predictive capacity of mother's @entity7793 demonstrated in a single study makes this marker a promising contributor to @entity248 for menopause prediction. Models, however, do not predict the extremes of menopause age very well and have wide prediction interval. These markers clearly need improvement before they can be used for individual prediction of menopause in the clinical setting. Moreover, potential limitations for such use include variations in @entity248 assays used and a lack of correction for factors or diseases affecting @entity248 levels or @entity7793 . Future studies should include @entity1 of a broad age range (irrespective of cycle regularity) and should base predictions on repeated @entity248 measurements. Furthermore, currently unknown candidate predictors need to be identified.

Can we predict age XXXX using ovarian reserve tests or mother's age at menopause? A systematic literature review.
