At Embryorigin Fertility Centre, we utilise the AMH fertility test—a pivotal assessment in evaluating female fertility, that can be done under GESY. AMH, or Anti-Müllerian Hormone, levels are measured through a simple blood sample, which can be obtained at any point during the menstrual cycle. This test measures the levels of AMH, a biochemical produced by cells in the ovarian follicles. If the results indicate lower-than-normal levels, further evaluation may be recommended by your fertility specialist, which may include a transvaginal ultrasound to confirm the findings.
While AMH tests cannot definitively predict conception or fertility treatment success, they offer valuable insights into ovarian reserve—the number of eggs remaining in the ovaries. Results are categorized based on AMH levels and age.
Contrary to popular belief, high AMH levels are not always favorable. They can indicate conditions like polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), a common cause of female infertility. However, a PCOS diagnosis presents treatment opportunities that may improve fertility prospects when planning to conceive.
Why Are AMH Blood Levels Important?
Maternal Age: As women age, egg reserves decline, with a more rapid decrease after 35. Assessing AMH levels helps tailor treatment plans, especially for older women or those with genetic, hormonal, or lifestyle factors affecting egg quantity.
Family Planning: AMH testing assists women planning to delay starting a family, providing insights into optimal fertility preservation timing and oocyte freezing if deemed necessary.
PCOS Diagnosis: Elevated AMH levels alongside specific symptoms aid in confirming PCOS diagnosis, crucial for managing irregular ovulation and other associated challenges.
Fertility Treatment Planning: Low AMH levels during fertility treatments prompt adjustments in treatment plans, such as expediting IVF or considering donor eggs/embryos if necessary.
