In the early 2000s, the determination of inhibin levels was used actively for the diagnosis of ovarian tumors, as a diagnostic marker for prenatal screening of Down syndrome, as well as a prognostic marker for ovarian reserve when conducting assisted reproductive technologies. However, to date, inhibin is rarely used as a marker for reproductive function. At the same time, numerous studies of recent years indicate the crucial role of inhibin in folliculogenesis and spermatogenesis, as well as in implantation and placentation. This allows to significantly expand the diagnostic spectrum of inhibin levels in various disorders of the reproductive system of both women and men.
