Decreased ovarian reserve function (DOR) is a pre-disease state of premature ovarian failure (POF), the pathogenesis of which is not well understood and the disease is insidious, so early detection and active treatment can save adverse outcomes. In recent years, the incidence of DOR has become younger, which seriously affects women's physical and mental health. In this paper, we analyze the etiology and clinical treatment methods from relevant experimental studies and clinical observations in the past 5 years, in order to provide theoretical support and treatment ideas for female reproductive health.
