Abstract：Female fertility refers to ovarian reserve function.Fertility protection refers to the early screening,treatment and special fertility preservation measures for factors that may cause impaired female fertility,so as to achieve the ability to produce genetic offspring.Premature ovarian hypoplasia is the main clinical feature of Turner syndrome,and about 98％of patients have ovarian reserve failure and fertility loss before adulthood,so only about 2％of patients are able to conceive naturally in adulthood.In childhood and early adolescence,ovarian reserve is still present in some children.This article focuses on how to evaluate the ovarian function of children with Turner syndrome at an early stage,and how to start the protective measures for ovarian function at the right time.
