Abstract
The study objective was to determine if mutations in mitochondrial DNA polymerase gamma (POLG) are associated with spontaneous 46,XX primary ovarian insufficiency (sPOI) using restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis of genomic DNA. Of 201 women with 46,XX sPOI analyzed, we found only one case (0.5%, 95% confidence interval 0-3%) of heterozygosity for a POLG mutation, suggesting that this is not a common genetic etiology for this form of infertility.
