OBJECTIVES: To evaluate preoperative anti-M  llerian hormone ( @entity248 ) levels in @entity1 with @entity46 or other benign @entity42 and differences of @entity248 changes according to various characteristics. METHODS: Ninety-seven @entity1 aged 20 to 39 years who underwent surgery for benign @entity42 were enrolled retrospectively. Of these, 65 @entity1 were diagnosed as @entity46 , and 32 had other benign cysts. Serum @entity248 , mean, maximum, and total diameter of @entity42 were measured. The @entity248 levels were compared according to pathology ( @entity46 vs. other benign cyst), size of @entity42 , age-matched @entity248 quartile percentile and characteristics of @entity46 . RESULTS: Preoperative serum @entity248 level was significantly lower in @entity46 group than other benign cyst group (4.12    2.42 ng/mL vs. 6.02    2.29 ng/mL, P < 0.001). Serum @entity248 level was significantly lower in @entity46 group, especially in @entity1 aged 30 to 39 years. Dividing to age-matched @entity248 quartile percentile, there were significantly fewer @entity1 with @entity248 level >=  75 percentile in @entity46 group (24.6% vs. 50.0%, P = 0.035). Among 4 subgroups of @entity46 , @entity1 with @entity248 level >=  75 percentile were significantly decreased in multiple bilateral @entity46 group. Mean and total diameter of cysts were negatively correlated with preoperative serum @entity248 level in other benign cyst group. CONCLUSION: We suggest that preoperative @entity248 level measurement might be considered in @entity1 with @entity46 , especially in 30 to 39 years old, multiple bilateral type, or big-sized other benign @entity42 to assess the diminished ovarian reserve.
