Objectıve: Our aim is to determine cut-off values for perimenopausal transition period a with hormon profile which is a marker of ovarian reserve in women with 40-50 years of age. In this age group, treatment can be planned for complaints of menstruel irregularities and to prevent vasomotor symptoms. Materials and methods: This is a case-control study. 194 women aged 40-50 years old submitted to our clinics were investigated between June 2008 and January 2009. We determined different cut-off values of each hormone for perimenopausal transition. Conclusion: In our study, the positive probability ratios for menstruel irregularities are 1.41 with cut-off values for estradiol 55.85 pg/ml, 1.08 with cut-off values for TSH 0.98 IU/L, 1.15 with cut-off values for testosteron 23.15 ng/dl. Climacteric symptoms were determined with cut-off values for FSH 6.58 IU/L, LH 3.66 IU/L, estradiol 46.7 pg/ml, testosteron 21.8 ng/dl.
