Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Primary ovarian insufficiency (POI) affects around 2-4% of women before the age of 40. Genetic factors play an important role in POI. The GDF9 gene has been identified as a significant genetic contributor of POI. However, the pathogenicity and penetrance of GDF9 variants remain uncertain. METHODS: A next-generation sequencing approach was employed to investigate the entire coding region of the GDF9...
