About this trial

This study aims to evaluate the relationship between ovarian stromal stiffness measured by transvaginal shear wave elastography (SWE) and conventional hormonal and ultrasonographic parameters of ovarian reserve. Reproductive-aged female patients will be evaluated to determine whether tissue elasticity provided by SWE correlates with ovarian function markers such as anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH), antral follicle count (AFC), and ovarian volume.

Eligibility criteria

This trial accepts healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Female patients aged 18 to 45 years.

Regular menstrual cycles (21-35 days) or irregular menstruel cycles (oligo-anovaltion)

Normal pelvic anatomy on baseline ultrasound evaluation.

Written informed consent to participate in the study.

Disqualifiers

History of prior ovarian or adnexal surgery.

History of pelvic radiotherapy or chemotherapy.

Presence of structural pelvic/ovarian pathology (e.g., endometrioma, ovarian cyst, dermoid cyst, active pelvic inflammatory disease).

Use of hormonal contraceptives, ovulation induction agents, or hormone therapy within the last 3 months.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Ovarian Stromal Elasticity Value

Measurement of ovarian stromal tissue stiffness/elasticity using transvaginal shear wave elastography, expressed in kilopascals (kPa) or velocity (m/s).

Time frame
At the time of baseline ultrasound examination(Day 1)

Secondary outcomes

1

Serum Anti- Mullerian Hormone (AMH)

Measurement of Serum AMH concentration (ng/mL) to assess baseline ovarian reserve

Time frame
At baseline (Day 1)
2

Antral Follicle Count (AFC)

Total number of antral follicles(measuring 2-10 mm) counted in both ovaries via transvaginal ultrasonography

Time frame
At baseline ultasound examination (Day 1)
3

Ovarian Volume

Measurement of ovarian volume (cm\^3) calculated using the prolate ellipsoid formula (length\*width\*height\*0,523) via transvaginal ultrasonography

Time frame
At baseline ultrasound examination(Day 1)
4

Serum Follicle-Stimulating Hormone

Measurement of Basal serum FSH concentration (IU/L) evaluated in the early follicular phase (Day 2-4 of menstrual cycle)

Time frame
at baseline (day 1)
