Transvaginal ultrasonography is an easy-to-perform and noninvasive method that provides essential predictive information on ovarian responsiveness. The predictive performance of antral follicle count (AFC) toward poor response is significantly better than that of basal FSH. Therefore, AFC might be considered the test of first choice in the assessment of ovarian reserve prior to IVF.
