Anti-Mullerian hormone, or AMH, holds important information about a woman’s fertility
At FertilityAnswers, we are committed to helping patients unlock their pregnancy potential. To help our patients achieve pregnancy success, our Southern Louisiana fertility centers perform anti-Mullerian hormone, or AMH, testing to gain information about a woman’s ovarian reserve, or egg supply.

• However, if she has low levels of AMH, she has a diminished ovarian reserve.
The fertility specialists at our Southern Louisiana fertility centers want to stress that it is not impossible to conceive if you have low AMH levels. Low AMH levels simply indicate that it may be more difficult for you to get pregnant. As a result, your physician will likely recommend that you begin to consider fertility treatment or fertility preserving measures like egg freezing.
Our fertility specialists can assess a woman’s AMH levels with a blood test

AMH testing is a unique form of ovarian reserve testing, because it can be performed at any time during your menstrual cycle. This is because AMH levels do not fluctuate throughout the month.
In addition to AMH testing, your physician may also recommend a blood test to assess your levels of follicle-stimulating hormone, or FSH. Unlike AMH, FSH is produced in your pituitary gland and its levels do fluctuate throughout the month. Despite these differences, FSH can also provide useful information about your ovarian reserve. High levels of FSH indicate a diminished ovarian reserve, while lower levels indicate a healthy egg
