title: Gonadal failure in young women and galactose-1-phosphate uridyl transferase activity.
abstract: The present study allows the conclusion that low Gal-1-P transferase activity resulting from GtD/gt heterozygosity is not an major cause of early ovarian failure. However, larger groups of patients need to be examined to fully exclude an association between these rare conditions.
