Objective To evaluate the ovarian function during early infancy in daughters of women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) treated with metformin throughout pregnancy (PCOSd+M), as a means to reduce androgen and insulin levels, compared with daughters of nontreated PCOS women (PCOSd-M) and daughters of women who belong to a healthy comparison group (HCd). Design Descriptive and analytic study. Setting Unit of endocrinology and reproductive medicine. Patient(s) Fifteen PCOSd+M, 23 PCOSd-M, and 35 HCd were studied at 2–3 months of age. Intervention(s) A GnRH analogue test was performed with determinations of gonadotropins, sex steroids, SHBG, and anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH). Main Outcome Measure(s) Differences in AMH levels between PCOSd+M, PCOSd-M and HCd. Result(s) AMH and peak E2 concentrations were significantly higher in PCOSd-M compared with HCd, whereas PCOSd+M exhibited AMH concentrations and peak E2 levels similar to those observed in HCd. Conclusion(s) The improvement of the altered endocrine-metabolic environment of PCOS mothers reduces AMH levels in their daughters, which might reflect a decrease in their follicular mass.
