NCT ID NCT07392216
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether girls with sickle cell disease have lower levels of a hormone called AMH, which is linked to egg supply, compared to healthy girls of the same age and puberty stage. Researchers will also check how treatments and pain crises affect these levels. About 440 girls aged 10 to 18 with sickle cell disease and their healthy relatives or peers will take part.
