Description : Hypergonadotropic ovarian failure is a heterogeneous disorder that, in the most severe
forms, is a result of ovarian dysgenesis. Ovarian dysgenesis accounts for about half
the cases of primary amenorrhea (Timmreck and Reindollar, 2003). Most cases are associated
with major X chromosome abnormalities. Accordingly, genetic studies have identified
several loci at Xq and Xp11.2-p.22.1 whose functions are relevant for ovarian development
(Zinn et al., 1998; Simpson and Rajkovic, 1999; Marozzi et al., 2000).;
Inheritance : X-linked;
Molecular basis : Caused by mutation in the bone morphogenetic protein 15 gene (BMP15, 300247.0001);
