title: [Evaluation of ovarian follicular reserve].
abstract: Qualitative and/or quantitative impairment of the ovarian follicular reserve is frequently observed in women consulting for infertility, whatever their age and the cause of infertility. The diagnosis of incipient ovarian failure can not be established on clinical signs. It is established by measuring serum FSH levels in the early phase of a spontaneous cycle and/or by measuring serum FSH level on day 10 of a cycle after administration of clomiphene citrate (100 mg/day) from day 5 to day 9.
