Parental Project and Premature Ovarian Insufficiency

One of the main repercussions of POI is infertility. When the diagnosis of POI is announced, the question of fertility is addressed and the patient is often directed towards egg donation or adoption when she has a parental project. However, there are cases of spontaneous pregnancies after diagnosis.

This study was conducted to determine the proportion of patients with POI who were able to realize a parental project after diagnosis in the long term and by what means.

About this study

The investigators propose to study patients with POI who were hospitalized in the endocrinology and reproductive medicine department of the Pitié-Salpêtrière Hospital for the etiological assessment of ovarian failure and its consequences between December 31, 1982 and January 12, 2021. The investigators will only include patients who were admitted to the day hospital because we have a complete etiological workup and a complete history for them, which allows investigators to describe the population properly. The patients must be over 18 years old at the time of the survey in order to be able to evaluate the presence of a parental project only in adult patients.

Patients for whom there is no valid contact information in the computer file (postal address or valid email address or cell phone number) or whose last consultation was more than 2 years ago will be excluded. Patients with Turner syndrome will be excluded because they may have comorbidities, particularly cardiac, that contraindicate pregnancy. Patients with POI secondary to oncological treatments (gonadotoxic chemotherapy or pelvic radiotherapy) will also be excluded because of the uncertain prognosis and the contraindications to pregnancy in case of hormone-dependent tumors.
