AMH blood test

The AMH (anti-Müllerian hormone) blood test is the first step in assessing your reproductive health if you have been struggling to conceive, or wish to learn more about the best options for you if you want to try and conceive later on in life. You need to have completed a fertility assessment, including the AMH blood test, before you can start fertility treatment.

AMH Blood Test

What is an AMH blood test?

The anti-müllerian hormone (AMH) blood test is the initial step in evaluating your reproductive health. It measures the hormone levels in your blood to assess your ovarian reserve, indicating the number of eggs available for potential collection during fertility treatment. It also helps to estimate how your body might react to stimulating drugs.

It's important to understand that while the AMH test provides valuable information about your egg supply, it cannot predict the quality of your eggs or your chances of becoming pregnant.

When should an AMH blood test be carried out?

The AMH blood test can be performed on any day of the month as AMH levels do not change during the menstrual cycle.  

However, we recommend waiting until three months after you have stopped taking hormonal contraception as that can skew the results.

AMH and age

Fertility declines with age and it is not possible to predict the rate of decline for an individual woman. Some women may wrongly assume that if they are having regular periods, that their fertility is fine. However, this is not always the case. Reproductive ageing is closely associated with the quantity and quality of the pool of follicles in the ovaries.

High AMH and PCOS

Occasionally, high levels can be suggestive of polyendocrine metabolic ovarian syndrome (PMOS), formerly known as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). This is a condtion that can can impact your metabolic and reproductive health, which may require fertility treatment and medication.

AMH and egg freezing

AMH levels can also be useful for women who want to postpone childbearing and check their fertility. If your AMH is low, you might want to re-think your priorities. If it’s normal, then you could delay parenthood, but do get the test repeated every year. If you're considering preserving your fertility, egg freezing may be an option.

Low AMH and fertility

Low AMH levels may indicate a reduced number of remaining eggs and could make conception more challenging. However, it is still possible to become pregnant naturally. If you find you are having difficulty conceiving, several fertility treatments can enhance your chances of conception.
