ABSTRACT
Adiposity has been associated with several health conditions as well as timing of menopause. Prior epidemiologic studies on the association of adiposity and anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) have been inconsistent. We evaluated the relations of anthropometric measures with AMH at two time periods in a subset of premenopausal participants in the Nurses' Health Study II. This prospective study included 795 women who provided a premenopausal sample in 1996-1999 and in 2010-2012. Current weight and height, and weight at age 18 were assessed in 1989 and weight again in 1996-1999. Waist and hip circumference were measured and reported in 1993. In linear regression models adjusted for smoking, reproductive events, and other factors, AMH was inversely related to BMI at age 18 (P = .03) and in 1996-1999 (P < .0001). Higher waist circumference was related to lower AMH levels in 1996-1999 (p = .0009). BMI in 1996-1999 was inversely associated with AMH levels in 2010-2012 (P = .005). Weight gain between age 18 and 1996-1999 was strongly inversely associated with AMH levels in 1996-1999 (P < .0001) and in 2010-2012 (P < .0001). Our results indicate that adiposity and weight gain are associated with lower AMH levels, suggesting an adverse impact on ovarian function.
