Context: In adult women, anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH) is related to the ovarian follicle pool. Little is known about AMH in girls.Objective: The objective of the study was to provide a reference range for AMH in girls and adolescents and to evaluate AMH as a marker of ovarian function.Setting: The study was conducted at a tertiary referral center for pediatric endocrinology.Main Outcome Measures: We measured AMH in 926 healthy females (longitudinal values during infancy) as well as in 172 Turner syndrome (TS) patients according to age, karyotype (A: 45, X; B: miscellaneous karyotypes; C: 45, X/46, XX), and ovarian function (1: absent puberty; 2: cessation of ovarian function; 3: ongoing ovarian function).Results: AMH was undetectable in 54% (38 of 71) of cord blood samples (
