The rise in FSH has been explained by falling levels of inhibin B from the ovary. Inhibin levels fall secondary to the declining number and quality of ovarian follicles and may be thought of as measures of ‘ovarian reserve’. Follicular atresia begins before birth and long before puberty. This early, accelerated loss translates into a reduction from a peak of 6–7 million follicles at around 20 weeks’ gestation to 1–2 million follicles at birth. This rate of follicular atresia is independent of gonadotropic stimulation.

Compared the expression of androgen receptors in human cardinal ligaments of prolapsed uteri with nonprolapsed controls59 and demonstrated that the cardinal ligaments of women with uterine prolapse expressed three to four times more androgen receptors than women without prolapse, implying that androgens may play a role in pelvic organ prolapse. Androgens may also play a role in stress urinary incontinence as urinary levels of androgens have been demonstrated to be significantly higher in postmenopausal patients with stress urinary incontinence compared to postmenopausal women without incontinence.
