L'insuffisance ovarienne primitive(IOP) est définie par la survenue précoce de l'épuisement de la fonction ovarienne. Elle concerne 1 % des femmes à l'âge de 40 ans et 0, 1 % à l'âge de 30 ans. Il s’agit donc là d’un diagnostic rare mais non exceptionnel, dont la symptomatologie clinique est tout à fait identique à celle observée au cours d’une ménopause naturelle, à savoir, une aménorrhée associée à une élévation de la FSH [hormone folliculo-stimulante] et un effondrement de l'imprégnation estrogénique. 4, record 2, French, - insuffisance%20ovarienne%20pr%C3%A9matur%C3%A9e
