title: Association of genetic markers within the BMP15 gene with anovulation and infertility in women with polycystic ovary syndrome.
abstract: We analyzed two polymorphisms (-9C>G and IVS1+905A>G) within the BMP15 gene in women from Spain with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). In this study, the BMP15 gene does not seem to be associated with PCOS. Nonetheless, we observed in both markers a genetic association with anovulation or infertility in these patients.
