Cross talk between serum kisspeptin-leptin during assisted reproduction techniques

ABSTRACT

Background and objective: Leptin facilitates onset of puberty by impact on hypothalamic Kisspeptin, gonadotropin releasing hormone, follicle stimulating and luteinizing hormone. The link of peripheral Leptin-Kisspeptin in regulating the ovarian and endometrial tissue in relation to adiposity is unknown. Therefore, we wanted to identify Kisspeptin-Leptin association with body mass index [BMI] and success of assisted reproductive treatments [ART] in infertile females
