Abstract

Aim: This study aims to investigate the relationship between PAP smear test results and anti mullerian hormone (AMH) levels. The PAP smear test is used to screen for cervical cancer. This test identifies malignant or pre-malignant cells of the cervix and permits timely diagnosis and treatment.
Material and Method: This retrospective cross-sectional study included 104 women of reproductive age who applied for a PAP smear test. This study was conducted between October 2019 and December 2020. Patients were clustered as subjects: 1) with an AMH <1ng/ml 2) with an 13ng/ml.
Results: The mean age of the study group was 28.45 ± 3.31 years. There was a statistically significant association between AMH levels and PAP smear test results (p<0.05). AMH>3ng/ml group had a significant relationship with the AGUS PAP smear results. There was a statistically significant association between AMH between 1 and 3 and normal PAP smear test result.
Conclusion: In conclusion, the results indicated that the serum AMH level and PAP smear test results had a significant relationship.
